hi all.

Microsoft just released a new version of the multi-gpu hotfix.
haven't tried it yet, so no comments here. i'll report when it's applied to my os.

This did help a bit in Crysis dx10 mode. Definitely more smoother now.

I'll give it a go. Cheers for the heads-up ;)

tested the pach for the few moments, also installed new forceware.
unfortunatelly i didn't notice any advantage of the hotfix installed.
Cod4 runs just a bit better, UT3 runs ok, but the freezes remain (10 seconds freez after every 4 minutes of play) Kyle and Lynch runs like crap.
need to check crysis for any fps gain, didn't have enough time yesterday.
