Feedback Of the Catalyst's in General

Dazog · Jul 9, 2004, 10:41 PM

I thought I would write up a list of Things I would LIKE to see changed or added to the Catalysts.
These are MY thoughts I just hope they get heard

In no Specific Order

1) Streamline installation, Which include 1 click install, let me explain

User clicks the .exe

The install files are dumped on the machine, then the Installer Checks current installed version, if None present continues with Install.

IF present it asks to remove old drivers, then continues installation.

Ask then for 1 click install or custom install for advanced users, including being able to NOT have the ATi logo task bar launcher be installed, I hate always having to uncheck after rebooting.

During the Install inform the people of the NEW features added in that Release as in the 4.7's was Temporal AA.

2) The stickiest of them all, A revamped Control panel and layout.

a)Would be nice to have Drop down Windows instead of slidebars those are soo windows 95

b)Option to HIDE settings I don't want to look at to clean up the Ones I do want to look at, like Tv options if I am not using them Ect..

c) Custom Game profiles, Instead of using a 3rd party app

d) Auto update feature click a button find out if newer drivers are out

e) Easy to access Help with a right click on any text to explain what it does, incase I forget

f) New Redesigned Icons and Pictures, 32 bit alpha blending icons anyone?

g) Finally which I would think to be the coolest of them all would be per app error reports, if a game or app crashes due to the Drivers a Report is made from which info the Developers need to fix that problem and asks the user if they want to send it to ATi directly.

Fix bugs easier and faster?

Provide a Link to the Feedback in the About Box of the drivers incase people want to make suggestions and not necessarily a "Bug Report"

Thats My thoughts anyone else have some Feedback for ATi as well?

I can't think any more right now.
