M18x Video Drivers

I currently own an Alienware M18x laptop with 2 AMD 6990's in crossfire.

I have two questions.

1. Does anyone know when a new Dell driver will be posted for the AMD 6990M.  The current one is over 3 months old!

2. Given the speed in which new video drivers are update on dell's website, does anyone have a good workaround for installing AMD's reference drivers?

 

thanks,

 

Ed

No worries. It is confirmed that all M18x owners should avoid the 11.11 drivers for now, but we can install the app profiles for 11.11 that give us additional app profiles for games. They work with the 11.10 driver. Here is the link for the CAP1 (Catalyst Application Profiles)

Here is a link to a forum that is on top of the 11.11 issues with the M18x. This is also a very good forum to follow issues or updates with the M18x. Cheers for now.
