Post by: Gandolf on August 21, 2001, 06:56:00 PM

I downloaded AH Latest version and when I open it and set my Res. It opens and i get colros that look like paint splatter and it dosen't run smoothly at all.Tried redownloading with virus scan off and still the same problem.

Current system.
AMD Athlon 750
256 MB ram
SIS 8MB video card with newest drivers.
Directx 8.0(downloaded right before AH)
Intagrated sound is working fine.

I do use a download accelorator with a cable modem.I even tried to dl an older version of AH from download.com and still had the same problem.  :confused: HELP!!!

That's your problem right there. SIS chipsets are basically garbage. I have one in my system that I disabled and use a Voodoo5 5500 in place of.

Basically, you need a new video card. That SIS chipset won't run many/any new games well at all or even look good.

Sorry.
