    I have recently upgraded to Windows 7, and I'm having problems with overclocking my HD3650.
    As far as I know I need ATI Catalyst 8.10 or lower for overclocking to work, but only the newer ATI drivers have a Windows 7 specific version. I've tried the old 8.10 and 8.9 Vista drivers, but neither will install. I get either an error message or the progress bar just doesn't move at all.
    With the driver from Windows Update installed, I get a BSOD when I try to use AMD Clock Tool.

    Is anyone else having the same problems as me? Any help would be appreciated :D

    That seems to work, just need to test it in a few games now.
