8800GTX

Ok, I was playing a campaign on COH and I got this weird graphical problem.



As you guys can see, the part where I circled in red gives a weird grey artifacts or something. When I move up down left or right, the problem would get worse as in, it lags a lot and I see this huge line of grey thingy across my screen.
 
No problems with COH at all for me on 97.02's , have you ran driver cleaner for nvidia cards on your sys then re-installed drivers ?
Tbh I havent had any problems after swapping out my 7800gt and sticking the 8800gtx in and just installing the 97.02s without running driver cleaner , I just uninstalled the nvidia drivers from control panel , shut down , installed card , booted to windows and installed 97.02 drivers.
 
like i said i was having the yellow problems with bf2142 but no other game tbh and they all work but ive just installed the new drivers so will test see if its still a problem

Yea this is how I go about doing it:
- Uninstall old driver
- Reboot comp and boot into safe mode
- Ran driver cleaner pro and installed new driver version
- Reboot comp again

I don't know why I am getting that yellow crap and I notice that after I exit from BF2142 and try loading other game it gave me errors as posted above. All games wouldn't load until I reboot my comp. And yes I only have issues with BF2142, no issues with other games such as Medieval 2 etc.

I do have a small issue with COH tho, stupid grey flickering thing, it lags the whole game a lot when going through the area with the grey flickering thingy.

leon tell me how it goes aight?
 
Na man, no way am I going to re-install xp, that IS a LAST resort lol. I hope someone knows how to fix this problem.
 
RIGHT... So basically I downgraded my driver version from 97.44 to 97.02 and it fixes both CSS and COH.

Morale of the event, never trust latest release.
 
lol tbh i don't think its the card bet its software related. if it was the card you would be getting crashes and lockups so more driver related remeber this card is a whole new ball game and won't be even used proberly till you can get into vista with it with crysis and world in conflict etc then it should be evolved enough!!
 
Ah crap, so its just me then. O well at least 97.02 works for me atm. I will change driver version when the next one comes out, cause I know 97.44 works really crap for me.
