FIX #1


The information in this article applies to the following system
configurations:
- ATI RADEON based graphics card
- CATALYST 3.5 driver suite
- NeverWinter Nights game from BioWare Corp.
Some users have reported that with the CATALYST 3.5 driver suite
installed, objects within the game may experience severe flickering.
Other OpenGL games may also be affected.

ATI Engineering has been advised of this issue are is investigating.

This issue should be resolved in an upcoming CATALYST release. The
following uncertified drivers may work around the issue in the meantime:


FIX#2

The information in this article applies to the following system
configurations:
- ATI RADEON 9100 based graphics card
- CATALYST 3.5 driver suite
- OpenGL based applications (e.g. Half Life, Quake III Arena, etc)
When launching OpenGL accelerated applications, no OpenGL hardware
rendering capable device will be found. For example, Half Life will report
the following error message:
"The Selected OpenGL mode is not supported by your video card"

This issue should be resolved in an upcoming CATALYST release. The
following uncertified drivers may work around the issue in the meantime:

Seeing that this is a complete driver package, you dont need to have the
3.5's along with this fix. Keep in mind that this is a HOTFIX, so this is
not a certified Catalyst Driver Release.
