    Download driver sweeper and select amd, and then analyse then clean, then after a re-boot, try and install the driver.

    Ever since 12.1, none of the new releases have been good. They've all had their own issues.

    Still running 12.1 and it's golden.

    for HD6770M + Intel HD 3000
    Catalyst 12.3 suffered from sticky 3D clock
    Catalyst 12.4 suffered from sticky Idle clock

    not sure about HD7690M XT + Intel HD 3000 tho.. probably the same

    Leshcat Catalyst 12.2 WHQL UnifL UP5 is the best imo.

    I'm running Leschcat's 12.3 (latest) and everything runs fine and so far I've played: Crysis 2, Syndicate, Alan Wake,Homeworld 2, various Emulators, F.E.A.R. 3 and everything works fine. Haven't done Battlefield: Call of Duty 3 like most of the posters here though, maybe I'll try it. Maybe just a bug with that one game?
