A tiny white dot is appearing in the top left corner of my desktop.

Aparrently, this is an ATI Catalyst Control Center issue with the 8.1 drivers, a white and slightly brown square appears at the top left corner of my desktop.
About 6 x 6 pixels. Only on the desktop, not in programs or games or when windows are maximized over it. When I close Catalyst Control Center, it goes.
This has only happened when I installed that new ATI Radeon HD 3650 graphics card and it's drivers. I like ATI, NOT nVidea [yuck] :mad:

Is there any way to get rid of this and keep Catalyst Control Center running?

Sorry, if anyone could move it there, that would be good.

I've moved it to Hardware>Support, as the Hardware>ATi Video Cards section comes under Newsgroups and will be hard to locate :thumb:

...and I've no idea how to get rid of it either, except uninstall and clean install the next updated drivers when they come out and see if that clears it.
 
Go and see your GP immediately.

It could be serious, especially if you've been frequenting certain nightclubs in your immediate vicinity.

Download these. Remove the old ones Via Add and remove programs. then download this to make sure that all traces of the drivers have gone then go ahead with the installation of new drivers.


This should correct the issue.

P.S. the first number 8 means the year, the seconded number means the month of release
