AMD Radeon Adrenalin Edition 18.1.1 Alpha Driver download




Advertisement
Download AMD Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition 18.1.1 Alpha driver. Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition, designed to give gamers deeply immersive gameplay and inspired by today’s era of social, connected gaming. This early access driver is being provided for users who have had issues launching a small number of DirectX 9 based games. This alpha driver has not been fully tested by AMD and is not recommended for general use.
The Adrenalin drivers seem to have caused issues with a handful of 10-year old games running on the older DirectX 9 API and a growing number of people are complaining about the fact that AMD hasn't done and isn't doing anything to address the issues. Some of the games affected are crashing at startup: C&C3 Tiberium Wars, C&C3 Kane's Wrath, C&C Red Alert 3, C&C Red Alert 3 Uprising, C&C4 Tiberian Twilight, Battle for Middle Earth 1-2 and Witcher Enhanced Edition.
We have a discussion thread open on these drivers right here. We also have a background article ready for this driver which you may read, right here. Let me re-iterate that this is classified as an Alpha driver, not even Beta!
Package Contents

- Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 18.1.1 Alpha Driver Version 17.50.07.02 (Windows Driver Store Version 23.20.15007.2002)

Guys, has any of you experienced a black screen with these drivers without playing any games?
I had one a few minutes ago. My PC was just downloading stuff while I was having lunch, and when I came back the only thing visible was the mouse pointer. No OC on my graphics card right now. I'm trying to figure out the culprit, the beta UEFI BIOS on my mobo or this alpha drivers. Nothing relevant on the Event Viewer.
PS: Yeah, I love living on the edge!

Is hardware acceleration on in the browser? I'd try that first though it depends on the browser in question with Firefox seemingly being more affected by it compared to Chrome or Edge.
Beyond that you have state switches and power management possibly not being 100% reliable so it'll have to be a bios edit and a lot of testing to find stable values and trying to avoid Wattman overclocking.
Other posts just recommend going back to 17.11.4 and skipping Adrenaline for the moment, hard to say which of these are correct or perhaps there's a few different issues in play so it could be a factor of several issues.
