Well, I no longer can play HL or TFC. No mater what I choice I make in the menus I get chucked to the desk top or it freezes. At first It will wait until I start the game (single player) or update the server list (for online play), but after that just clicking on a choice in the menu freezes the game or chucks me to the desktop (this being on a restart).
I have now gone to the 5.52 driver and the turboGL 1.30 driver. I have reinstalled the game and patch (1.1.0.0). Still the same problem. This is the combo I was with before the bata drivers. Strangely it has not fixed the problem.
For reference I did uninstall both the drivers and the game before reinstalling. I am not O/Cing the card and I set the processors to default settings to make sure that was not the problem. And yes I searched for driver components with mgs,g400, and pdesk in them and removed them before installing the new drivers (both cases).
For the short time I did have the game running the sky was corrupt in TFC map rock (is that the correct name?). Also there seemed to be other little problems with a random texture. Nothing that stopped game play but noticeable. Over all the game seemed to be smoother and faster but I can not back that with numbers seeing that I cant get it to run any more.
Any thought on why I would have these problems?
