Hi,
I've recently installed a XFX 6800 GT graphics card in my machine following the failure of my 9800 PRO. Now I got major screen draw issues!
Things start off well, I'm spawned into the map - everything looking fine... but as the game goes on (within 2 minutes or so), textures of buildings etc start disappearing and replaced with just black shapes. Tanks/Helicopters etc just disappear and I can see the bloke sat down in the air flying around.
Grass starts to disappear and replaced with blackness.
I've tried on many different detail levels... however also only get to see two resolutions on the Video Settings screen - 800x600 and 1024x768 - however TFT can do 1280x1024.
I've tried Medium and High textures, AA on/off, many many different nVidia etc etc
Spec of the machine is as follows:-
AMD64 3400+ (2.4GHz I think)
1GB PC3200 400MHz RAM
XFX 256MB GeForce 6800GT (with nVidia drivers at 78.01)
1.02 BF2 patch installed
Dell 1800FP TFT monitor
Would appreciate any advice as not long after buying the game the Radeon 9800 blew up and I've not had a chance of a decent game yet!
Thanks very much.
EDIT: Problem solved!! Seems root cause was motherboard (or chipset drivers). Changed to a nVidia chipset board and everything now running well!
