Hi Jean-S=C3=A9bastien Sorry for the delay. Between work vacation and more work, I didn't see this message until now. I have always loaded the Radeon drivers on boot but I didn't try not loading it on boot. I'll try that. I actually tried buying a new AMD motherboard and CPU to see if there was some sort of problem with the current one I was using and there was no improvement. Acutally since I went from a 3 year old A8 to an A6 processor the computer seems slower and I sound over hdmi no longer works, But at least I am reasonably certain that something else has changed with the OS.
