Hmpf. I have been using the 8.12 drivers for quite a while, and now they bugged out for no reason at all.
While I was writing a review of OC3D, not using any intensive applications my screen just blacked out. Then it came back on with a windows error saying my graphics driver had stopped working and was fixed. Well, it was not since my screen went black again. After a few times of black and error message I finally had a BSOD. Curiously, that was the only thing windows was able to display.
Anyway, I rebooted in safe mode, deleted the driver and then reinstalled. No problems now, but I am seriously ****ed off by this.

They seemed OK for a 4870 1GB I tested recently - have heard that they don't play nice with Crossfire setups tho.

ATI have released a hotfix for crossfire systems. Specifically 32 and 64bit flavours of vista with 4850 based crossfired setups. I have exactly this - 64bit with 2x 4850, and this hotfix (so far, touch wood etc) All is running smoothly, though have been lazy and havent benched them against 3dmark as yet.
Linky.

The only issue I've had on this driver is after I downloaded the latest FAH GPU2 client. I got the display stopped responding error too so reinstalled the older GPU2 client and everything was fine again.
