Graphics Cards problem 7950 GT

[solundor]

Hello
I have got a new pc with a NVIDIA GeForcr 7950 GT GPU and my friend gave me a link to download the driver but of all my game I have a graphics problem eg:

on Counter-Strike Source on some maps some of the textures are missing and it looks like a box with a cross

on Prototype every textures is missing but i can see smoke and gun fire

I when't on the NVIDIA site and it said my Graphics driver is fully update
is there anything i can do

I'm running XP (SP3) q6600, P5N-D

did you download the right drivers?

also, did you download drivers compatible with xp? do you have 64bit or 32bit?

as I said my friend gave me the link to download it and I have 32bit xp, I can't find the right driver to download, can anyone link me

What is the temperature of the card? Use something like GPUZ to monitor it to make sure it isn't overheating that is causing the issue.

if it is overheating, improve fan speed using rivatuner, improve case air circulation, maybe even underclock in rivatuner

no it was the drivers my friend did give me the wrong one
now the only problem I got now is my dad has got my Monitor and I'm using my TV but the edges are cut off and Prototype is the only game that dose not get cut off

and thank you for the link

if you're using a tv, then it's probable that it's a different aspect ratio, the tv is 16:9, and the monitor would be 16:10

what size is the tv? you'll need to change the resolution to a 16:9 res.
