CAP's are included in this driver?

If you are using IE10 on windows 7 or windows 8, stay away from any AMD driver newer than 13.2 beta7. Sadly, the 13.6 beta's still crash with IE10+flash (11.8.800.64)
It's your problem, i have 13.5 beta2 and never crashed with flash on win 8 pro 64 bit

I'll ask what others have asked and got no reply. Do we need to install the latest CAP with these 13.6 BETA or they're included already?

Always install latest cap. (asder said in his previous post)

Well it's weird to install older 13.5 CAP 1 on newest 13.6 Beta drivers don't you think? There's no official info from AMD about older CAP's were integrated in newest Beta drivers so it's normal to me that people are curious...

Working fine here. Which version of AB are you using?

It's always good practice to uninstall Afterburner before installing new drivers, and then reinstalling again. Don't keep previous settings either.

Dota 2 seemed like I was playing with 20 fps, turns out with vsync on it was capped at 60 and wasn't lowering but frametimes were all over the place... Turning off vsync I can't notice lagg but it's still capped at 120 fps which I don't remember happening before...
You need to edit Dota 2 config file to remove 120 frame cap.

Tried latest official and beta. I have found the problem. I was always installing the driver only, manually through the device manager. Tried to install whole package and it worked. So there is some major change in driver. It needs to be installed with redistributables.

As I was mentioned in an earlier post, not only are the Visual C++ runtimes in the Catalyst installer outdated, so was the link the person posted saying that that was the latest. Here is an updated all-in-one installer for Visual C++ Runtimes. New Visual C++ 2008 runtimes were just released so had to reupload and include those: http://db.tt/RipgzPno These are truly the latest redists of Visual C++ 2005/2008/2010/2012, x86/64.
Not only are they old but it also fails to detect they are already installed http://i.imgur.com/oBGn99Zl.jpg

My earlier comment was just suprise at them updating to even 2012. They've been on 2008 for god knows how long..

I use a bundled VC++ setup to keep those updated, it's fairly minor but I like keeping it clean and only having the latest versions installed. 🙂 (Thus I also take care to remove such setups from games and the like to avoid installing older versions but it's pretty easy to fix when it happens.) EDIT: As for 13.6b I've not had any issues so far, wonder what profiles were added? (Will probably be revealed soon enough.)

Before uninstalling and/or installing new drivers, close AB if it's running in background ! Never had a single problem when doing this. Anyway, before installing new driver, I uninstall older with control panel. After rebooting, if an old driver is automaticaly installed by windows, I uninstall it with device manager. I repeat this until the standard vga driver is installed. Then I use AMD uninstall utility to delete all remanents files and reboot. Now my system is clean and I can install new driver without problem or conflict. Moreover, no more drivers are stored in windows and my ssd has more space!

Indeed, i always wondered why programs dropped their own instead of using whats already on the system...

I can confirm these mobility 13.6 beta drivers work on an (2012?) 27" iMac with a Radeon 6700m video card in windows 7. A programmer at my job uses an imac and he's been trying to update the drivers for the past 6 months but usually they wont detect the video card. These drivers actually detected the card and installed, and seem to be working well.
