black screen flashes white then CTD on loading AH2
« on: August 02, 2004, 11:10:34 PM »
I just reinstalled WinXP Pro after formatting this weekend and reinstalled AH2 now I can't get past a white flashing screen that kicks me out to the desktop.

I reduced texture size down to 128 and at first it was 512 with nothing preloading in system memory. Now at 128 I get the same screen with textures preloading or not in system memory. If I change the default to 512 with preload in system memory I still get the same issue.

BTW I will be out of town for two days but luckily will be staying near HTC then so I may just drop in and see whats happening.

System information:
Athlon64 3200+
1GB DDR400
Gigabyte K8N Pro (latest BIOS)
Ti-4400 128MB
40GB HD
WinXP Pro SP1
DX 9.0b

dxdiag is available on request should it be needed.

Make sure you have the latest NVidia driver loaded (http://www.nvidia.com).
