Marcel Posted February 21, 2004 Posted February 21, 2004 That has been happening for about a week or so. This problem occurs with most games, and it doesnt happen at first but only after a period of time, which may be the video card over heating. I havent got any new hardware, so i know the problem lies with my existing hardware. Also it happens with both opengl, and direct x games. When I updated my video card drivers games stopped working completly so I went to an older driver. I have an ati 7000 64mb AGP card. I havent done any major software changes excepted added a dual boot for Mandrake 9.2, which is on the same Hard drive. The only game which this doesnt happen to is Halo, which boggles the hell out of me. Any suggestions are appriciated. Marcel gfunk is a champ Red vs Blue
