I have been having video problems on aces high from day 1.  Sometimes, not always, the ground will turn blue, hangers and runways dissapear, and plane and cliboard will become semi-transparent.  This usually occurs when jumping positions in bombers or returning to tower after landing (or crashing lol)  My frame rate seldom gets above 40 or so.  I have good connection (190k/s)I am runnin an ATI rage 128 vid card under a P3 500 and assume the problem to be with the card or it's drivers.  If anyone can help it would be much appreciated

If you are running the latest drivers from the ATI web site (4.12.6969), this is the problem.

You need to get the 4.11.6263 drivers.  They work pretty well, although the patented ATI radio tear is still present.  Other than that you should be in business.

Here is the URL for the last good driver for this board, which should solve your problems;

Hope this helps.

I have that card myself in one of my computers.  6063 is the best version available. (I've tried ALL of them that I could find.)  The text buffer will tear as it scrolls and also in windows text will flash as it is updated.  Neither of these issues are too big of a deal.
