ATI Catalyst 8.6 Drivers Released

Post by Yoon »

AMD has released this month's Catalyst 8.6 driver today. This supports all DirectX 9 ATI Radeon video cards, which includes the Radeon 95xx+, Xxxx+, X1xxx, HD2xxx, and HD3xxx series. Like every Catalyst monthly release, this driver set contains a few fixes for games running in Windows XP and Windows Vista. This driver set also seems to coincide with the launch of the Radeon HD4850, which is rumored to surprise launch tomorrow, according to TweakTown.

List of Changes: http://game.amd.com/us-en/content/pdf/Catalyst_86.pdf

Download Link:

Windows XP (32/64-Bit) / Windows Vista (32/64-Bit): http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx

Installation Instructions:

1.) Uninstall the ATI drivers from "Program Add/Remove"
2.) Install and Run Driver Sweeper with "ATI Display" selected. (It's recommended to do this, so that left over data from old graphics drivers don't conflict with the new ones.)
3.) Restart the computer.
4.) Install the new Catalyst drivers.
