Been having slight issues with this Windows 8 AMD Driver Suite
Jittery scroll, display flickers, disappearing cursor, flash freezes.

Solution;
1. Uninstall Windows 8 AMD Driver Suite, delete AMD folder in C:/, delete ATI folder in programs and reboot.
2. Install AMD Catalyst Display Driver for Windows Vista/Windows 7/Windows 8 64-bit or 32-bit.
