fyi these 11.1 drivers are older than the hotfixes that have been out for a week now.

AMD released 2, 11.1a hotfix drivers one dated jan13th one dated jan26th

the later hotfix jan26 gave me a problem with my HD5970 but the jan13th ones didnt.

the problem I got was the second GPU would stay at maximum load 100 in 2d.

problem solved by going back to the first hotfix 11.1a from jan13

also a note of mention the WHQL 11.1 drivers do not have several features that the hotfixes have, such as AMD tessellation, AF AA, EQ AA. and other features.
