I've recently updated my graphic card drivers for my amd 6850, installed the 13.25 driver.

Starting BF4 it still reports that I'm using driver 11.1 and quite frankly I haven't a clue what is going on! :(

Any ideas out there, please can you give me a reminder for uninstalling and reinstalling new drivers for my graphic card!

When you install the new drivers does it give you the option of a clean install like you can with Nvidia cards?
I haven't used Ati/AMD graphics cards since 2000 because of driver problems then

1. BF4 is still buggy and thats the problem
2. you're mistaking 11.1 as the driver, rather than DirextX 11.1 (does not work on windows 7) turn off DirectX 11.1 in BF4 settings (Using a new driver may turn this on in BF4 settings, even though it breaks the game for windows 7 users).
3. no idea

From Andrew. lol asked him for you

I use Vista! :headslap:

Not sure the 11.1 does relate to directX?

Probably vista is unsupported!

Im not sure if it relates to dirextx, but it is more likely considering how odd it would be otherwise.

That tool (under console tab) can disable 11.1 from auto running :)

If you have an AMD, try installing AMD Catalyst Control Center. It'll auto download the best drivers for you.
