Fix: ATI CCC 8.6 Infinite Loop Bug | Posted at 9:50 PM
I wasn’t the only one to have this problem. Apparently, when I installed the new ATI drivers for my temporary video card, the Catalyst Control Center (CCC) will keep disappearing and reappearing if you try to open it. Others have the same problem. As pointed out in the aforelinked thread, you can just get around it by installing only the 8.6 driver and then the 8.5 CCC:
- If you haven’t already installed it, grab the new ATI 8.6 Display Driver Only package. Install it.
- If you have it installed already, uninstall the new ATI CCC from Add/Remove Programs. Note: Only the CCC, not the driver or software uninstall.
- Now, download and install the 8.5 CCC and then restart.
Now once you’ve restarted, you can use the Catalyst Control Center without it acting up.

I love you.
