ATI Releases Catalyst 9.1 Video Card Drivers for Windows and Linux

By

ATI has just released Catalyst 9.1 for Windows Vista, Windows XP and Linux platforms on http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html. This software suite includes Radeon display driver 8.573 and full OpenGL 3.0 extension support. It also fixes numerous bugs and one bug fix that I am happy to see that when playing Picture-in-Picture on a DVD with PowerCinema or PowerDVD the system no longer halts! That is one of 24 fixes for Vista users that is highlighted in the release notes, so be sure to update!
