My CCC says, I have

Driver packaging version 8.64-090714a1-086600E-ATI
CCC Version 2009.0714.2132.36830

What driver version does that correspond to, in download package
nomenclature, for instance, 6.1 ... 9.10?

Right below Driver package it should say Catalyst version. Mine says
9.10 and not CCC Version 2009.0714.2132.36830. Are you using an interim
driver provided by AMD for 5xxx series cards? I had that driver for a
bit but now the official Cat 9.10 is good with my 5870. With official
9.10 driver it should look the same as below.

Driver Packaging Version 8.661-090923a1-083743C-ATI
Catalyst™ Version 09.10 <<this is the driver version

I have downloaded and tried a number of drivers from the ATI web site,
ranging from the latest (9.10) to some very old (6.x, none of them
worked. Finally I tried the one from the CD that was shipped with the
card (Radeon 3650).

That one worked. Yes, I know, I should have tried the supplied CD first.

Anyway, that's how it came off the CD. Not a version number that
corresponds to the stuff at the ATI site.

That's a bit strange. If you enter the right OS and card you have into
the driver download site then the driver you get should work fine.
