  • Matrox G400 ACP 16MB & Rainbow 6

    I recently upgraded my G200 8MB AGP to G400 16MB AGP.
    I'm trying to run Rainbow 6 on the new video card and it continues to crash just before any missions or training missions. I get to the beginning of the mission and as soon as i move my mouse it crashes back to the desktop.
    I've installed & reinstalled the latest DirectX drivers (7.0)& the latest drivers Matrox drivers 5.30.007. No luck.

    System Specs:
    PII 266 mhz
    64 MB
    38x Pioneer CD-ROM
    SB Gold

    Please offer any suggestions.
    Thanks

    Rainbow 6 will actually run if i click FORCE SOFTWARE; however, its very choppy & slow.
    However, if i disable FORCE SOFTWARE Rainbow 6 crashes as soon a mouse movement begins during game play.
    Could it be a Direct X issue??

      I had Rainbow Six working on my Max with Win 98, DX 7 and the 5.30 drivers.

      From memory, I seem to remember it was recognising the Max as a 3D card with no problems, and was running at 1024x768. I say from memory, because my Hansol 900P decided to take some time off ill, and the replacement they sent lasted all of 5 minutes...

      There is a patch available from www.redstorm.com - have you installed it?
