GPL doesn't like my Matrox G200 even with patch

I've got problems running GPL, even with updated Matrox G200 drivers and the GPL G200 beta patch on my overclocked Celeron 300A. But first System Info: 300A Celeron O/C'd to 450MHZ Abit BH6 Motherboard Panasonic32X CD-ROM Fujitsu 4.3G HD 64Megs SDRAM PC100 SB128 PCI Matrox G200 Millenium 16 Megs Guillemont 3dFX Voodoo 1 board Problems: Under G200, something is awfully wrong with the graphics -- like a bad printing job -- colours all out of alignment. GPL won't accept 3dfx at all with the overclocked system. Works OK with my P166MMX with the 3dfx card. I can only play GPL in software mode. All other games work fine -- in D3D, 3dfx, software and hardware mode. Is it the G200 beta drivers that are causing all the problems? Charles

I don't see that problem with the G200 patch. I see a clipped driving line, sparkling pixels, the occasional box around a cloud, etc. But the colors are fine. If you haven't already, drop to 16bpp before starting GPL. Have you tried clocking your system down to spec? I have a Millennium G200 with the 4.26 beta 2 drivers and the release 1 GPL patch. I have no problem running the game on a Voodoo 1 card. (There's a .ini file in the GPL directory that you can edit to select which 3D DLL to use, in case you can't get into the game menus to do so because of a configuration problem.) Nope. They work fine for me. -- spamgard(tm): To email me, put "geek" in your Subject line.
