dirt 2

About this tag
DiRT 2 is a racing game that has been discussed on WindowsForum.com in the context of performance issues, driver compatibility, and troubleshooting. Users have reported app crashes related to KERNELBASE.dll on Windows 7, often linked to Games for Windows Live (GFWL). Performance problems with AMD Catalyst drivers, such as stuttering with version 10.6, were resolved by reverting to 10.3. CrossFireX improvements with Catalyst 10.3 were noted. Other topics include Steam sale pricing, custom skins, and DirectX 11 versus DirectX 9 benchmarks. Memory usage during installation on Windows 7 64-bit was also a concern.

  4. Back to 10.3

    Like most I upgraded to the recent Catalyst 10.6 release but had started to notice that with each successive driver release performance in DiRT 2 was getting worse.
