My video card is fucked, but UT2004 doesn't notice

Post by Stark »

HW2 and Rome (with 1.2, anyway) have huge problems with my 9600XT. Never had problems before, but now they keep crashing the GPU or the drivers fail and whatnot. Draw errors, full-screen corruption, all the good stuff.

However UT2004 works fine. All my shooters work fine. Even on maximum 'how much texture memory do you have' mode. Any ideas?

Weird, I have kinda similer issues, with everything working fine(though FPS is kinda low in some games), but DX9 in HL2 is broken(9700 Pro).

Drivers are fine, everything, UT popping along at 150FPS etc.

Rome just kills my drivers (right down to reverting to vga ones and giving me a window saying 'ur driver is teh brokzor'. HW2 gives me flashes of full-screen corruption every few minutes. UT2004 is fine. JO is fine. Its wierd.
