ZBuffer Bias
« on: May 22, 2004, 12:44:35 AM »
Hello Skuzzy:

Have encountered difficulties in my attempts to fly online or off-
line in AH2.  Keep getting the "ZBuffer Biasing msg & to update
my drivers".   On six(6) occasions I've downloaded drivers from
http://www.dell.com, thrice from  http://www.ati.com & twice from http://www.ome-
gacorner.com w/NO SUCCESS!!  :(

All my efforts failed, & Yes, I did remove from the control panel the
updates, restarted my computer, msconfig & BOOT.INI, etc .. etc
w/only 1 update (the below listed) being a success.   The omni-
present ZBuffer msg very much in evidence STILL.

Would u pls help me out of my dilemma?  Ur recommendations. TY

Happy1  :D

DELL DIMENSION 4300
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4CPU 1600MHZ
256MB RAM
Windows XP Home Edition
DirectX 9.0b
Display:  16MB ATI RAGE 128 ULTRA

The problem is your video card. Upgrade that.
Most of the people you meet in life are like slinkies. Pretty much useless, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.
