why wont this card play modern warfare 2 properly?
I can play it but the sub titles and on screen info is just squares multi coloured blocks.
When I put my brothers Nvidea 8600gt 1 gig in it runs fine.
always thougt my ati was better

any thoughts.


Thanks
 
Might be worth a shot, I ended up using 8.11's until the end, since the last supported driver gave me bsod's and others wouldn't install properly-the 9.1's did work fine though.
 
Might be worth checking the last Legacy drivers if havent already. Cat 9.8 (really a fixed 9.3) available from amd.com . I dont have mw2 to test, but these drivers do allow crossfire to work in win7 with my two 1950pros.

Im sure I have read somewhere that ati are going to release a new legacy driver set soon, so maybe they will have some important fixes for newer games.
 
it will, the X1950 was a great card, in its day...... should be more than enough to play it

I think the lastest don't support that gen :\
 
try earlier drivers, as I seem to recall AMD withdrew a few gens from their latest drivers (can't remember what they was)

*edit* ops sorry, I was thinking something else and are you on win 7 ?
 
my 1950 runs it ok (have completed it) :)
using the 9.3 driver

got the texture setting on auto, AA off, and all the yes/no settings to 'yes' exept for V-Sync
