REVERT TO PREVIOUS DRIVERS
If you need to revert back to a previous driver release you can remove the Radeon driver from the control panel and you will need to reboot. The the desired driver can be installed which will require another reboot. Be careful not to remove chipset drivers.
Never use the driver to force game options. Use the in game settings only. Game engines are not designed to be operated that way.
Windows 8 users will need to install the 8.1 updates and platform updates to be able to install this and subsequent drivers. Windows 7 users will need to have SP1 installed.
