Choppy Video With New Computer!

[Kitchen SinK]

But how did this start?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

This started when I put together a new machine with this video card (radeon 9800 pro 128) .

 

My old system plays it fine. I installed continuum .38 and then the .39pr1 download. Same as I did in my old Rig. I have talked to a few other Radeon Users out there and at least 1 has the same problem on his radeon 9700. I think it has something to do with the vid card--though what I do not know. This card Plays wicked hard to run games like FARCRY a direct x 9b game real well. I have no probs except in Continuum. I use the same monitor, mouse and keyboard-- other than that my machine is all new.

Help

I do not want to get seasick while playing my favorite game

Well, try messing with the BIOS settings for AGP. If drivers don't help, that might. I can't imagine what else could be done - sounds like a (very odd) hardware problem. Hard to understand, too, without seeing it. I assume you have tried VSync on?

I just had to re-install XP after a virus and now I have the SAME problem. Continuum worked great yesterday and now it jumps all over regardless of settings.

 

I hope someone can find a solution!

In the game's advanced options, try forcing 'tiles' into memory (and try some others if you want).

Installed Service Pak 2 - problem gone. Uncheck everything in Advanced Options too.

 

HTH!!!
