    I wasnt sure which of the threads to post this in, so i thought i'd make one... I have modded 9.12 catalyst drivers because I OC my card when playing games but when i attempt to use the GPU scaling fix app in the thread made a few days ago it comes up saying no supported drivers found. I assume it only works with unmodded drivers, but that would mean I would not be able to overclock no? Is this now a choice between GPU scaling and overclocking?
    Another thing... there is no settings in my catalyst control center with regards to GPU scaling. In all threads regarding this problem it says to set the GPU scaling option in CCC to on, but i don't have it! :S Do i have the wrong CCC? Its the most recent one...
    Thanks in advance
    Señor Cheese x :p

    Hm, try change your desktop resolution to a lower one, open CCC, go to Graphics -> desktop & displays -> right click the notebook icon at the bottom left and go to configure -> and try set it to full screen. Then set desktop back to normal resolution.
