12.1 with 2.1 sdk is best.

I saw the threads that said that but they are fairly old now. I had better results with sdk 2.5 included with Catalyst 11.7

AMD APP SDK stopped supporting XP with versions 2.6 and later, you will need an earlier version. I recommend downloading AMD Catalyst 11.7 which includes SDK 2.5: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/previous/11/Pages/radeon.aspx?os=Windows%20Vista%20-%2064-bit%20Edition&rev=11.7

I saw another thread (can't find it right now) where someone suggested using catalyst 11.12 or 11.4. Something about sdk 2.6 doesn't support XP so people were reporting success with using drivers that included sdk 2.1

Hope this helps!

EDIT: found thread, it's about a 5870 but info is still relevant

I hear the more recent catalysts don't have openCL driver anymore. I tried 12.8 and GUIMiner can't see any openCL miners Sad What to do???
