Think I'll try the Omega drivers first. I found the latest version (Radeon Omega Drivers 2.6.87, Catalyst 5.12).
Wolfram, do you mean the official drivers require MS's 'NET. Framework' driver? Hmm I don't like that idea... It takes about 75mb of space, installed. I use that program to 'edit' certain things but don't keep it on the drive.
I may DL the latest (official) Catalyst drivers too, just in case there's any trouble with the Omega drivers. I have my C: partition backed up for very quick restore, so I can play-around a bit with different drivers.

Perilscope, If I need the official drivers I'll watch out for the excess 'cake' as you mentioned.
If I'm understanding you correctly, it sounds as if a bunch of unwanted things 'can' be installed with official drivers.
That reminds me when trying to install sound-drivers for an SB-Live! card, and ending up with about 320MB of 'media player', 'juke-box', tons of sound-files, and a mess of other junk
Oh yeah, cookies 'on' too... Oyy!!
Thanks a bunch
p.s. I see Omega 5.12 driver is a 'lighter' 24MB .exe file.
ATI official 5.13 driver is 34MB with CCC and WDM, not to mentioned NET. Framework's required 75MB install.
