ATI Vista Drivers 7.3

Just wondering any ATI Video user try out the new drivers for Vista version 7.3 is released for download. I my self usually wait till they go a couple versions before installing the latest version. I think i am using the 7.2 now without any problems and the old rule if it working don't try and fix something that is perfect.

Downloaded and installed...no issues. I just installed the Display Driver as I don't see a point of installing the Catalyst Control Center. I like to install what I need, nothing more.

It looks like the roles are reversed now. Back when XP came out Nvidia was quick to put out quality drivers and ATI fell back behind. I remember seeing a lot of posts by upset ATI users crying out for good drivers. Now the reverse is true, lol.

Thanks airman. I'll be trying 7.3, including the control panel. 7.2 works fine for me, but the control panel has a few issues.

I never tried just the drivers do you have to uninstall the old drivers first or can you just install the drivers.

As I recall, the custom install option allows installation of just the driver.
