Enabling crossfire drops my fps in ARMA 2...

    ..Which is annoying. :p
    Bought a second 4850, running latest catalyst drivers, crossfire enabled. I have latest Arma 2 update. I also downloaded the latest crossfire profiles.
    Video stress test in css for instance gives me 100+ more fps so it definately is working. Going into Arma 2 I have the crossfire logo on my screen.
    Running the benchmark gives me 15fps with just one card and 13fps with two cards :eek: I've ran it a few times.
    Please help!

    I think Pog was saying he noticed improvements while using crossfire when he reverted to catalyst 10.4.
    Although hell have to confirm that himself

    Yeah, both 10.5 and 10.6 completely break Arma2 performance for me. Also I've got to rename Arma2OA.exe to Arma2.exe to get crossfire at all in Arrowhead as Ati have no profile for it yet. At moment I'm running 10.4 with the latest profiles and both Arma2 and OA are running smoothly.

    To properly uninstall the driver the correct way;
    Download the driver and have it on Your desktop. Install driver sweeper (might as well save Your desktop icon positions with it), uninstall the driver in Add/remove programs in control panel, reboot and as booting to Windows keep clicking f8 to select save mode. In safe mode run driver sweeper to remove all traces, then reboot to normal windows and install the driver needing a further reboot.
