ATI seems a bit slow to get that on their auto update system, even steam didn't have that update.

as far as I can tell, this patch solves the crashing issue with my ATI card, there still seems to be some kind of memory leak that is only in Praetoria, after doing a couple missions, textures started disappearing. At least I was able to log, when I came back, the textures came back. This was a full log, to desktop.

seemed pretty stable pre-patch, then patched it this evening, and now I crash lots in praetoria, not as much in the other areas.

Quote:after completing the above recommendations (skipping safe mode as that's only for recovering from system crashing conflicts), I can safely say that it works incredibly well, big thanks to Memphis_Bill.Or be more thorough - grab DriverSweeper. No longer at guru3d, though.
1. Run the uninstall via add/remove. Make sure you're getting everything, including the catalyst control center.
2. Reboot in safe mode. Run driversweeper. Have it remove all ATI drivers.
3. Reboot normally. Install your new (or, rather, older) drivers.
As for what I'm running:
Core i7-860
8 Gb RAM
Win7 x64 Home Premium
ATI Radeon HD 5770 -
you need to first uninstall your driver, if you don't know how, AMD has a nice tutorial on how that's done. You'll know you've done it right if you get prompted to reboot your computer, do that. with the 10.8 drivers, after proper install, you will be prompted again to reboot your computer, do that again.

sorry if this is the wrong thread for this, but I can't seem to find a for with the heading 'technical help'.
I have a multi-core 64 bit win 7 comp. 8 gigs of ram, 1 gig video ram. I can't play this game long before it simply crashes, I have my graphics setting up pretty high, I cant quite max it because the game starts acting funky with all the settings up there.
Any solutions?
