Running the Catalyst 3.10's, MMC 8.8, DVD 7.6 on an All-in-Wonder 8500DV.

I only ever once had a prob with a Catalyst upgrade... 3.4's I think... would set my AGP to 0x and I had to uninstall Smartgart to get 4x going.

Running MMC 8.8, but only DVD 7.6 because you need an installation disk for a RADEON 9000 to upgrade higher.

I like all the Catalyst upgrades.. with the one noted exception.. everything is running great.

Had issues with 3.9 and BF1942, still using 3.6 here. Haven't tried 3.10 yet.

3.10's doing thier job on my Radeon 9600 non-pro. The 3.4's recognized the card as a 9600 Pro, and led to frequent lockups... The new drivers see it as the non pro, and its running nicely.

Going from memory here, but I thought I read on these forums that that issue is fixed in the latest drivers. I might be wrong though. HTH

EDIT: Nevermind, it was Call of Duty that I was thinking of not BF1942. I guess these issues might still be fixed though

Using the 3.10's now on a 9600 PRO, 9700 PRO and 9800 PRO. I haven't had any problems with most of them cept for the 3.5's which would only show B&W on s-video out.

i had issues with 3.9 as well. 3.10 is great so far. all versions before 3.9 were good too....im thinking i may have gotten the best framerates with 3.6 but i don't feel like downgrading because the difference is minimal at best....
