As many of you know, the new AMD mobile 11.11 drivers cause a BSOD upon every windows startup.
So currently we are not getting the best performance out of our new games(skyrim, batman AC, Assassins creed revelations, SWTOR, BF3)
Even with the 11.10 drivers crossfire does not work in many of the games. If you have crossfire working in some cases if halves your framerates, like in Skyrim.
currently 11.10 drivers are not acceptable for a 5 thousand dollar laptop. Upon sleep i get a BSOD with 11.10.
I wish i went nvidia. Dell has told me to talk to tech support but what can they do about crappy AMD drivers that they haven't even made dell official yet?

Well this will be my last alienware laptop,thats for sure, im so sick of this driver circus. Seriously if you sell 5000$ gaming laptops you make sure we have the latest graphics drivers to use with it, what is the point of having latest hardware if we cant really use it. This is so bad costumer service that i really dont have words for it.

Agree completely .... Sitting here trying to run BF3 ... and only one GPU is active, this is absolute Bull ... not OK in anyway.
$4000+ for my machine and I can't play a game properly.
Dell should be replacing my machine with Nvidia if they can't get AMDs to work.

I didn't order AMD after reading the horror of issues in 2007, their driver issues are hardly something new to be fair, and its not only dell who are on the pointy end of the amd stick.
