The issue is that OpenCL installer which is part of the Catalyst driver installer does not recognize Windows Server 2012 (only supports Vista,7,8 by default). One can verify this by running GPU-Z, it will show that no OpenCL support even though the hardware devices have been identified and installed correctly.

The fix is to simply modify the OpenCL package (C:\AMD\Support\13-1_vista_win7_win8_64_dd_ccc_whql\Packages\Apps\OpenCL64\OpenCL.msi) to include Windows Server 2012. The process is fairly straightword, and mostly based upon this thread.

Though the values need to be adjusted for Windows Server 2012.

Index 1, 2, 3, 4, ...
OS WIN_WIN8_SRV
Version 6.2
Is64-bit Yes
IsMCE Blank
IsWindowsServer Yes

It should look something like this

Save the modified installer, and run it to install the OpenCL components. Check with GPU-Z and verify OpenCL support is enabled (can't remember if a reboot was needed).
