    Is there any way to mod an older driver, lets say Catalyst 6.3 with newer fixes from maybe Catalyst 6.9? Just fixes nothing else.

    If so, how can it be done?

    Thank you

    No I dont think you can do that. Drivers are like a program. You would need to disasemble them to make changes.

    What is the point of doing it? The 6.3 drivers work best for you? and what fixes do you need from the new ones.

    flags in bf2 and bf2142 do not appear in catalyst 6.3 yet they do in catalyst 6.4 and up but they perform badly.
