Try clocking down your card to stock speed and it'll probably work.

[tuco]

no luck mate.

i have the same problems with CS and Win2k

you are not alone :-(

Try install the latest Via 4in1 drivers.
The next thing to try would be going back to DX7.

[tuco]

i'm using via 4.25, believe these are the newest?. had tried the d3d patch when i was using dx7 & had the same problem, only want this so i can try playing at 1280x1024 res.

[good health to all]

What driver version are you using? I had this problem too. When I used 5.11 the problem went away.

[tuco]

currently using 5.14, shall try 5.11 tomorrow & see if that works.

[lono]

hmmm an older Driver Version ...
But i can`t change the Refreshrate in this version, can I ?

[tuco]

tried 5.11 & same thing happens ( uninstalled card & drivers ), will go back to using GL instead.

lono, you can always use powerstrip to set your refresh rates.

[tuco]

oh by the way lono, please pardon my ignorance, but what is "CS" ?

[lono]

mean Counter-Strike
mod for Half-Life

[lono]

i hope someone could help me to solve this problem with CS ... there is only the OpenGL and the Direkt3d mode ...
Direkt3d is shit because of the controls
and opengl looks like a LSD-Trip :-(

Next Graphic-card is an Elsa ...
