[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.battlefield1942 (More info?)

I have a Gigabyte X800 XT PE AGP card (
http://www.gigabyte.fr/produits/cartes_graphiques/gv_r80x256v.htm
) with a Pentium 4C @ 3GHz , Asus P4C800 Deluxe mobo, and 2Gb Corsair DDR
(2 x TWINX1024-3200XL)

I have strange graphics in DC:

Do you have the latest drivers for it installed?

When you removed your old card, did you uninstall those drivers?

Latest DirectX version?

Could be.
If it go's more bad soon you know for shure.
When my vidcard gave up those were the first symptoms.

Latest ATI Catalyst driver

Latest Direct X driver


The only game with graphics problem is Desert Combat, no problem with
Battlefield 1942, Battlefield Vietnam (and mods), HL²

Ok.. is this a new video card?

If not, did it just start happening? Did it work fine in DC before?

Have you tried a reinstallation of DC?
