Hi all, I saw a strange graphics tearing thing the other night. I took a couple a screenshots and uploaded them <a href="http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/n3llyboy" target="_blank">here</a> for viewing. Fascinating isnt it?

Sad man I am.

I've not seen anything like that myself

Are you sure its not your gfx card or drivers?

You followed the tweak guide?

Not followed anything Trig, it plays smooth and sweet with everything set high at 1280x1024. The problem was a one-off.

Oh ATI card What Drivers are you using? If you are using the ATI Ones change to the New Omega Divers. very nice now that they have been fixed.

Whats wrong with the ATI ones Rasputin? I used to mess with the omega ones but didnt really notice any difference with my old ati card 8500 128mb.

Does it happen when the hax are off? Try and think back to those times... you had just installed the game for the first time...

Well It's not that there is anything Wrong with the ATI Drivers really they do what they say on the tin, but the Omega ones are alot better and more stable. With the Omega ones for instance I can play BF2 on the Laptop on low settings but with the ATI ones I can't because it is very laggie. And that is without any over clocking. Just things like that. Basically what I am trying to say and not very well is that the Omega Drivers get more from your card then the ATI ones to the point where ATI have said that if you are using the Omega drivers that they will support you. Now as you will know most hardware companies will just tell you to install they're drivers then they will support you, so that must say something.

But then I always say stick with what works.

Hope this makes sense
