Hi I'm using a 5870 with the latest catalyst driver 11.9 and I'm having a few issues with my screens.

Sorry for bad quality but you can get an idea.

Cheers Sam

Think I may of sorted it by disabling AMD Overdrive, I'll post again if any problems.

Honestly it looks like your monitor is going down the tubes.

But here is the simple answer, if this issue only started with the 11.9 drivers, switch to the 11.10 preview drivers or back to 11.8. Problem solved.

If that does not fix it, either the card or your monitor is about to crap its pants.
