    So I'm trying to install CCC 11.2 but when I install and go to view log it says that the ATI Display Driver has failed.

    I've booted into safe mode and ran driver sweeper and uninstalled all my old drivers but I still cant install this.

    Can someone please help me?

    Make sure it isn't the desktop drivers?

    I used the drivers posted on this website.

    Right now I'm using 10.10 drivers and they're fine but I want to use 11.2.

    Try the one directly from AMD.

    And using 10.10 drivers cause my laptop to heat more than it used to with stock drivers.

    Uninstall 10.10 first, reboot, and check if you still have a previous ATI driver installed. If so, uninstall that too. (You may need a tool like ATI Crap Cleaner)

    Once back to MS supplied drivers, run the 11.02 installer, and do a custom install, and install the drivers ONLY. Reboot, and then download and install the CCC Only installer for 11.02.

    I ran into same problem.

    I noticed on the site that they posted the Catalyst Software suite under AMD catalyst packages & Catalyst Control Center under Individual packages.

    I first downloaded CCC under Individual & I ran into same problem. Problem is, the drivers are not included in that package.

    Download "Catalyst Software Suite". It will download ATI download manager. You will be downloading a bigger file around 96megs or so. Try that.

    I'm about to.

    I had the same problem after I used CC cleaner. I had installed and removed the drivers numerous times and it was fine. I used some driver sweeper program, I think it was CC cleaner and after that it they would not install. If memory serves I think I ended up doing a system restore to finally fix it.
