You can try using the ATI Tray Tools instead of the Catalyst Control Center.
I just set up a new system, and I used the Omega drivers with the Tray Tool
instead of the more bloated ATI install.

So far, I'm very happy with the way things run, compared to my previous
install. No more CLI.exe taking over my computer (100% CPU utilization).
More memory available, etc. I didn't play around much with CCC, but the ATI
Tray Tools has all the functionality I want, handling my setup (20" WS LCD
panel, 19" CRT) just fine. I do have the "ati2evxx.exe" running, but since
it doesn't try to take over myc computer like the "cli.exe" did, I don't
care as much.
