GPU acceleration support for ATI FirePro V7750?

Just installed VP 11 on my machine with an ATI FirePro V7750 video card. Under Options > Preferences >Video > "GPU acceleration of video processing", the only option in the pull down list is "Off". Does Pro 11 not support GPU acceleration with this card, or do I need to configure something else for it to recognize the card?

Have you checked your driver?

From VegasPro 11 system requirements:

Supported cards for GPU-acceleration
To take full advantage of the GPU-acceleration in Vegas Pro 11, you will need a supported card with at least 512 MB of GPU memory.
NVIDIA
Requires a CUDA-enabled GPU and driver 270.xx or later with a GeForce GTX 4xx Series or higher GPU (or driver 285.62 or later with a GeForce GT 2xx Series or higher GPU).
AMD/ATI
Requires an OpenCL-enabled GPU and Catalyst driver 11.7 or later with a Radeon HD 57xx or higher GPU. If using a FirePro GPU, FirePro unified driver 8.85 or later is required.

Updated the ATI driver for the FirePro V7750 to 8.850.7.2000, still only option under "GPU acceleration of video processing" is off, no other choice.

I just noticed a similar problem I have a Radeon 5770 1gig card, when I had the Trial version installed I could turn GPU on and off I just ran the Rendertest and then went and checked the GPU status and I noticed that I only have the OFF choice, the only thing different is I bought the real version yesterday.

Any ideas?

I have posted a tech support request to see why VP11 is not recognizing my video card, and will put the response up here when received.

Updating to new driver 8.883.0.0 had no effect (12 06 11), still no GPU acceleration.

Updated to build 511, no change at all. SIgh.

Updated to current latest drivers 85.7.3, no recognition of the GPU by VP11 under build 511 and Win7x64.

Any updates? I have the same issue with V7750 and V11.
