You probably need to update your Catalyst drivers to get the latest OpenCL package. As for the solutions I was referring to, they deal with using the app_info file in convincing MW to keep using the old CAL application. Do a search on app_info on this page.

Look at the lines following this part - they should show something like this:
2012-02-10 07:22:48 | | ATI GPU 0: ATI Radeon HD 5800 series (Cypress) (CAL version 1.4.1683, 1024MB, 991MB available, 3584 GFLOPS peak)
2012-02-10 07:22:48 | | OpenCL: ATI GPU 0: Cypress (driver version CAL 1.4.1683 (VM), device version OpenCL 1.1 AMD-APP (873.1), 1024MB)
2012-02-10 07:22:48 | | ATI GPU is OpenCL-capable

You need OpenCL to run MW on a 5800, unless you use some of the hacks described above...

FYI, 12.1 drivers don't break Collatz - I tried them. However, I quickly moved up to 12.2 (in pre-release) because of issues with the video converter (nothing to do with BOINC). 12.2 works fine with MW and Collatz - both CAL and OpenCL are working. CAUTION - since this is pre-release, I'm not recommending anyone move to Catalyst 12.2 (which they now call AMD Vision) - your risk & peril.
