Download Driver For ATI Catalyst 9.10

AMD has released this year’s tenth Catalyst release for its ATI Radeon graphics cards with version number 9.10. The drivers are available for Windows XP, Vista and 7 versions, in 32bit, 64bit and Media Center versions. The new drivers are suitable for all Radeon models from the HD 2400 series; older maps rely on the 9.3 release. As usual, at the very bottom of this posting are the direct links to the pages where the available downloads can be found. New in version 9.10 is support for GPU acceleration for the drag & drop functionality in the Windows 7 video converter and for super sample anti-aliasing of the Radeon HD 5800 graphics cards. In addition, of course, they also contain the usual list of bug fixes, followed by a collection of problems that are already known, but for which there is no solution yet:
