AMD has released the WHQL version of Catalyst 10.1 which is a bugfix version (see the release notes for more information).
But this driver comes with a funny bug related to the driver version (under Win XP): 9.5 instead of 10.1.
And Terry Makedon confirms this fact but with another version number:
The correct 10.1 is up, the issue is that the version number just shows up as 9.12 – just use them as normal
9.12 was already displayed by Catalyst 10.1 beta…
Anyway, you can grab Catalyst 10.1 as usual HERE.
Obviously, it’s not a good time for graphics drivers teams (see here) 😉
I’ll wait for ‘100mb sized’ hotfix release all in one because I don’t like download twice 😉
The floating point bug in GLSL is STILL not fixed for opengl 3.x contexts at least. What a shame.
Thankfully, Crysis on my HDTV at 1080P is now borderless! Runs like a charm at 60hz full screen now. The same goes for 3dmark Vantage.
Yes they should have been fixed a long time ago.
Mine shows as 9.12.
– Drivers Version: 8.700.0.0 – Catalyst 09.12 (12-10-2009) – atig6pxx.dll
– ATI Catalyst Version String: 09.12
– ATI Catalyst Release Version String: 8.70-091210a-092787E-ATI
Also 10.1 hotfix already out:

They sure work fast! Hopefully they remembered to fix version number.

” ATI Catalyst 10.2 now released. Get it here: http://budurl.com/xfj9 1 day ago “
@Korvin77: I think that was a typo.
After installing 10.1 hoftix:
– Drivers Version: 8.700.0.0 – Catalyst 09.12 (12-10-2009) – atig6pxx.dll
– ATI Catalyst Version String: 09.12
– ATI Catalyst Release Version String: 8.70-091210a-092787E-ATI
LOL! Still 9.12… you would have thought they would use the hotfix as a chance to fix that…
Oops, that version didn’t change….
Only the CCC version changed to 2010.0126.1637.29770
and see not even a monkey working for ATI could fix their F up just goes to show maybe monkeys can’t do everything EH ATI
oh i almost forgot mine shows
Catalyst 09.11 – 8.69-091211a-094296C-ATI (12-11-2009)
hehe I installed 10.1 but it doesn’t work for me – system says that I have no driver so I backed to 9.12 but now info centre says that I have 10.1 installed!!!!! bravo ATI you completely fix it XD
