Before you get on my case, yes, I am well aware I need to be updating my graphics drivers more often.
Last night, I was playing DiRT 3 when my screen went grey and the audio began to skip. I allowed the system a moment to regain stability, and it did so. I was brought back to the desktop where a window on my taskbar claimed that my display drivers had crashed, but recovered. I panicked for a moment and restarted my computer to clear the cache.
Upon restarting, I allowed my computer a few minutes to start up Steam, Skype, CCC, and everything else. Once everything was settled, I started up Dishonored. I played for a solid 20 minutes before the screen flickered black and it once again brought me back to my desktop where the same exact message displayed. I decided to restart my computer once more.
Again, I allowed the start up programs to initialize before opening CCC and updating from 12.6 to 12.10 (refer to earlier sentence). The update went smoothly and without incident. Following the update, I restarted the computer. When I opened CCC after restarting, it still showed I had 12.6 and that the last time I had updated was July. Puzzled, I searched up information but could find none. I decided to download Catalyst 12.10 manually off AMD's website and allow the files to overwrite. Once again, the installation went fine but CCC still stated I had an earlier version. I rolled back to 12.6 and updated to 12.10 once more, but nothing was fixed.
What do you guys recommend I do? I know I have the 12.10 files because I checked myself in the AMD folder and since the update, I haven't encountered the pixelation and driver crashes.
