    what did it install? I just tried it, and according to whats happening, it didnt install display drivers, not CCC. CCC can be manually installed from the package, but the display drivers give me:

    "The driver selected for this device does not support this version of Windows"

    Also, the display drivers seem to be pretty old. The version is 8.692.2 compared to the 8.723 from the official ati webby
