Is my 5770 borked? BFBC2 problems.......

PapaLazaru · 23 Mar 2010 at 19:14

Hi chaps. I have this very annoying intermittent problem (amongst all the others we are all having) with BFBC2.

Basically every now and then I load up a maps, click to join and get faced with this -

I know there have been reported problems with the ATI drivers and I am currently running 10.2. I am also running XP so can only play in DX9, but that will be sorted soon. Rig is in my sig. My card works fine with every other game I play.

I have been searching high and low for an answer and a lot of my clan mates have 5770's with worse CPU's and they do not get this.

Any help would be most appreciated before I throw my rig out of the window and end up spanking a grand on new stuff I do not think I need.

it does look like a driver/game issue , you tried anyother drivers ? . running with aa and af ?

Well I had the same probs with the 9.12 drivers.

AA is off as I have XP and the rest of it is medium with textures and water set low. It is driving me crazy as I have half a mind to get another and crossfire them but if it is borked it will be a pointless exercise. The only other really high graphic game I have is Dirt 2 and it run that fine.

That is definitely an xp related issue, had that happen a few times to me on the beta when I was still running xp.

have you tried the driver that came with the card ? , give it a shot if not or try the 10.2 drivers

I hope so! Think a little SSD & Win 7 might have to be bought this weekend.

It's a limited copy of BFBC2: Stevie Wonder's Special Edition

Damn it I turned all the settings to low last night and it was working but now I get the same bloody thing happening. :mad:

I've had my screen flash black for a few seconds, turning around seems to fix it. Not sure why though.

Make sure you have the latest 10.3 drivers, there's meant to be a fair amount of fixes next release for this game (10.4's)
