AREA51,PC - Graphic problem
|
Hi,
i got a problem by playing AREA 51 on my PC:
AMD SEMPRON 3000+, 2GHz, 512 MB RAM, SATA, 16x DVD, NVIDIA GeForce 6200.
"The Search":
In action the image shows grey spots.
When I look at the basement all looks okay.
the menu is shown normal but in action i see the grey spots again.
Does someone know how to handle this?
TIA and BR,
mgubler

I have the same board, and the same problem. Damn water coolers and breakable glass leave trails all over the screen making it unplayable. A large majority of the 6000 series of nvidia boards are having graphical errors like this. The 'officially supported' boards list from Miday is a pretty picky selection. Midway is not really keen on fixing it, they are waiting for Nvidia to release a driver to correct the problem. There's suggestions from Midway and other posters to downgrade your nvidia display driver to the 78.01-05, or the 78.14 version, but both have not worked for me and I do not like the idea of downgrading as it impacts my other games. It's a shame, this game looked like a pretty good shooter.
I'll keep it installed on my hard drive for a little while longer. If the next nvidia driver doesn't fix it, I'll have to junk the game and be more leery of Midway games on the PC in the future.
