It is a slap in the face to every customer that uses bootcamp. The unwillingness of both Apple and AMD to provide up-to-date bootcamp video drivers, is totally unprofessional. don't blame me if you brick your GPU (which I don't think it's likely to happen, but I just have to say it). I can play Borderlands 2 in 4K, but almost can't play The Witcher 3 in 1080p, even with the latest (modded) drivers.ītw.
Also I game a lot, and that's not great in either OSX or Windows/Bootcamp, especially on new games that require driver updates with new profiles. No way I want to switch to FinalCut X (testet it with the trial).
I'm actually thinking about selling my Mac Pro, and building a pure Windows desktop, and no more AMD!!! I'm doing a lot of video editing in Premiere Pro CC, and have the experience have disappointed med, compared to how much money I put in it. Hope it works for you too! ? That being said, I'm really disappointed in the Bootcamp support, and the driver updates. Now Catalyst should work properly too.Īlso, if you encounter any more problems using this method, you should uninstall the driver using "Display Driver Uninstaller", and probably delete everything AMD related in the registry (CMD+R, regedit). If you have problems with the Catalyst software, which I had on the latest driver updates in Windows 8.1 (but not anymore on Windows 10), do the same process with an earlier version of the driver (15.5 worked for me), run the setup, and chose custom installation. Now you should have new and better performing drivers installed, working perfectly with Windows 10. Just run "setup.exe" in the root folder of "modded drivers"
Copy "InstallManagerApp.exe" and "InstallManager.dll" from the Bin64 folder of the December Bootcamp driver, and overwrite the corresponding files in the Bin64 folder of "modded drivers".Ħ. Copy everything from the Bin64 folder of the Omega driver and overwrite everyting in the Bin64 folder of "modded driver".ĥ. Copy everytning from the latest driver to "modded driver".Ĥ. Make a new folder called "modded driver", which purpose explains itself.ģ. Download the latest driver (at the moment of writing 15.7.1), the AMD Omega 14.12 driver, and the official December Bootcamp Driver 14.301.Ģ. The process, which actually is quite easy:ġ. Have used modded drivers for some months, and haven't encountered any issues (once I got a successfull install).
Right now I have installed the AMD Catalyst 15.7.1 update, and it runs just fine. I have used them fore a while, after I grew tired of no updates, and learned about the method on some forums. I've successfully upgraded to Windows 10, and I'm currently using what you could called "modded" AMD drivers.
