Game Textures Not Loading Properly

I've been noticing recently that there have been a few minor (yet irritating) bugs in my system that all seem to be part of some greater issue stemming from my graphics drivers. The most apparent of which is a lot of game textures not loading properly. Most of them appear blurred and very low resolution (see attached screenshots-- I used Skyrim because it was the easiest to see, but it happens in other games too, such as SC2 and BF3).

I apologize for the lighting-- I swear it looked much better when I was playing:

But besides that there have been things, like CCC crashing (With the error message: Host application has stopped responding) every time I try to launch it.

As well as new graphics drivers from AMD not installing, with the error message:

"<Product> cannot be downloaded due to incompatible hardware/software on your computer. This version of your graphics adapter is not supported."

I could be wrong about it all being connected-- but it all seemed to start around the same time. Unfortunately I was a complete dumba** when I first recieved my computer, and never made a backup.

Any help you could provide would be great.

Thank you.

 

Lanner, have you tried the 11.11a's? The work well with Skyrim...provides a 5% boost too! and they install with many rigs where the previous 11.10's and 11.11s would not install

ATI Cat 11.11a

 

What the jellybean?! I have no idea what is going on now. Here's a quick recap of the last half hour:

Downloaded 11.11a, and began installing. Halfway through the installation my computer crashed. I rebooted to find all the graphics drivers offline. From there I tried re-installing the 11.11a. This time it worked, but at the very end after displaying, "Success!" I received an error message that closed itself before I could read it. At this point I just decided to uninstall everything AMD using the install manager. I did this, and the computer asked for a reboot after it had finished. I did that... and upon reboot it ran perfectly with all of the AMD drivers that I had just supposedly uninstalled. I ran Skyrim.... no more low res textures.

What....?

 

I think The_Revelator would know more about this from first hand experience.

 

well...at least you fixed your problem lol...sounds like it didn't really uninstall...but instead the install was halfway through and needed to complete. I'm not going to even guess at what happened. At least the driver installer was stubborn. It was gonna finish one way or another

we'll call this the Lanner7 driver install method lol
