  • P750 + Sysmark 2001 - whinges about anti-aliasing

    Hi,

    Just downloaded Sysmark 2001 and it says that there's an antialiasing option (sixteen times) - yet it throws up an error message when you try to run it.

    Sorry if this has all been covered before, but what's wrong?

    Cheers,

    It seems not to like FAA.

      True, it seems not to like it... but why...

      Is it a problem with 3DMark or a problem with Matrox?

      The product information from Matrox says it has FAA-16X...

        Sorry I don't have system mark here...

        Just as a thought, try forcing FAA in PowerDesk and ignore the settings in SysMark.

        3DMark suffers the same fate. Works fine, but you need to override it with PowerDesk as the Bench Software doesn't pick up FAA correctly.

          Thank you Sasq,

          Twiddling the settings in PowerDesk seems to have the desired effect!

          Now I can see the tests nicely anti-aliased, although at a much lower frame rate.

          I've only lived near Salisbury for the last 5 years, but it's a nice little cathedral city with most of what you want about. Southampton's not a million miles away either - that's a much larger place and has most of what Salisbury's not got!
