I never download individual dll's (some very nasty sites out there with rogue DLL's! But, interesting to learn it just needs one dll in the distribution. That makes life a LOT simpler (providing they're allowed to redistribute it)
Fair enough, just remember, once opened, keep refrigerated. Not suitable for septic tanks.

I updated last night myself as on my testing machine it appeared to be rather stable.
Biggest issue I notice some tearing small amount of tearing during large pans in movies.

WTF.. slightly offtopic in here, but kind of interesting, too.
ATI supplied driver updates to microsoft, so now my win 7 update routine offers "ATI Technology Inc. driver update for ATI Radeon HD 3600 Series" as part of the windows update.
not sure if i should download/install them.. any ati user in here that also got this offer and already installed it that can confirm the ATI CCC still works afterwards with that driver?
more likely i would head for new drivers offered by amd.ati.com than microsoft ones.

No don't download it! I found this update available, thought it maybe just updated some component. It completely upset the CCC and the ATI driver. I ended up removing MS update and having a bit of a job getting the CCC and ATI driver running smooth again.
It's appeared again for me, but now I've put it into the sin bin, ignore it!

Seems to be ok for me, I get the bars down each side but otherwise looks good.

Unf. that didn't work for me. It worked only once after a fresh install, afterwards, back with the windows bar.
