SCGT and lock-ups !

by Rampag » Mon, 23 Aug 1999 04:00:00

Just upgraded to a TNT2 over a normal TNT and now have problems with lockups
in SCGT. When it does work for a minute or so the frame rates are well worth
the upgrade but after a while the system freezes ans the reset button is the
only way out :-).
A deperate call for help !!

The first time I installed the card nothing worked the way it should so I
reinstalled win98 and used drivers that where the same as a friend is using
with the his card who is having no problems, its a powercolor Sniper 2 too.

It seems as if D3D is the probelm, I have tried everything I can think off
and no luck. The system is a P2 350 clocked to 392 with 128 meg ram and a
Chaintech M/B.  Heat is not the problem as it plays all other games fine,
but freezes in SCGT.

Any help would be greatfully recived as this game just HAS to work on my PC
:-)

I believe powercolor is having problems with drivers with there TNT2 ?..
anyone heard the same ?

regards, Paul

This is your lucky day. I guess that u have a TNT2 Ultra right? And probably
a V770D Ultra. If I am right about that then i probably know how to help you
if I am not then this might still help u. If u are over clocking your TNT2
at 175mhz the system will crash after a while, but if u make it run at a 170
then your system will run okay for as long as u want.
