How do I edit the file?
I try to bring it up, and I don't get an option to rename...do I have to go through notepad or something?

Go to properties and make sure your file is not read-only and change it if it is. Then use properties to rename it.

A warning about ATI drivers, I bought a ASUS EAH5870 Ver.2 specifically to play SH5, I installed the original driver that was into the CD included within this video card box, the result was a steady 60FPS everywhere and with all 3D video settings at max resolution, later I downloaded/updated the newer drivers (10-5, 10-6, 10-7, 10-8 etc etc ) , and I noticed there was a progressive drop in FPS with every new driver version , when I updated the 10-8 version the FPS drop to just 3FPS ( yes just three FPS :damn: ) , I sort out this problem installing again the original driver included with in the CD , and the FPS went again to a steady 60FPS everywhere . The conclusion is ,the drivers can affect the FPS performance and therefore I will NEVER again update any ATI driver

You have a heck of a card there. I have a 5850 (not asus) and have the latest cat drivers and have no issues. But I do have win 7 64 bit.

What is your original cd version ?

Hello, I think I made a mistake because I was updating/downloading the drivers from the AMD/ATI website, and as Sober was telling me, I need to update the drivers just from ASUS website, this is the driver version originally included into the CD of my ASUS EAH5870 Ver.2
