ok, i have 4 dx 10 games: bioshock, company of heroes, crysis and crysis warhead. whenever i run any of them in dx 10 the screen goes messed up and the mouse goes out of alinement, running them in dx 9 fixes the problem but i have a fairly decent card (4870 512) and would like to run them to my cards abilities.

i have latest drivers and dx 10 is fully updated through vista

heres a pic of what im talking about


notice im apparently pressing yes with my mouse to the bottom right and the left side of the screen looking rather warped. so you guys got any idea what to fix, im pretty sure its a software problem but unfortuantly cause its built into vista i cant just go and redownload dx10

I think you need to reinstall the drivers. Uninstall via ATI Install Utility, reboot. Go to device manager and make sure that your video cards are not recognized as "HD 4800 series", if they are, that means the drivers are still installed, or were automatically installed. Right click, and select uninstall, delete them if it asks. Reboot again, make sure they are unknown devices in device manager. Now run Catalyst 8.12 install, reboot and try again.
