Anyone else with Ati Catalyst 10.3? Suddenly I get horrible screen tearing in TF2 (didn't test it anywhere else yet). Vsync doesn't seem to work anymore regardless of settings in the control center or in the game. Seems to be less in fullscreen mode, but not entirely gone and I need my windowed noborder, cause I'm lazy.
So.. anyone else? And does anyone has the installation file for Catalyst 10.2 by any chance?

I have the 10.2 file, i'll upload it somewhere if you want it. Have you checked C:\ATI\ to see if it's in there first?
Seems odd - can't say I've noticed any problems. I've been getting the occasional stuttering whilst playing which might be 10.3 related.

Nah I don't have it, I usually delete that stuff right after the installation. Would be appreciated, even if I read that the problem doesn't go away if you rollback the drivers...

Just tried Serious Sam HD demo and it's the same. Tearing when windowed, next to no tearing in fullscreen, but still worse than before.

Fairly minor for me, actually not noticable, about 5 fps less. Except for the horrible tearing now.

Yeah - I think I'm getting it as well power - been playing BC2 this evening and it's been a little bit dodgy here too.
I'm uploading the old drivers now - I'll post a link when it's up.

One known workaround for BC2 has been to set your ingame resolution to something else, once you've started the game, then set it to your normal resolution and reenable vsync. Every single time you start the game.

Thanks Tea! Sammy already uploaded the 10.2 for me yesterday, but if I need to go any further back, then it's a perfect site. Though I didn't have this problem with 10.2.
The problem doesn't seem to affect the 5xxx series. Seems to be the typical "one driver for all cards, but actually programmed for the newest card generation" problem.
