IMHO useing a hacked driver just isn't worth it. Usually they only offer 3~4FPS better than the OEM drivers, but are filled with little glitches like this one. I would just stay with the OEM drivers.

I use the Omega drivers because I can't seem to be able to install the ones directly from ATI. Even though I have completely removed the old driver and have completely disable Norton, the new driver keeps telling me that it can't install because of a certain file. Because of this I have no choice but to use the Omega drivers as those don't seem to have a problem with my computer.
