Just installed the Nvidia 53.03 vid drivers from Leadtek for my Leadtek GF4 Ti4200 and now the mirrors have gone weird in GPL. They are showing what is out to the sides of the track just ahead instead of what is behind on the track. Monza it happens for the entire lap and Monaco it happens for about 1/2 the track. I'm running in ogl as i have for the last year or so and never had this happen before with any other Nvidia drivers. Thanks for any help, Sid.

Thanks for that Malc and Dan. Setting the buffer flipping mode to Block Transfer mode fixed the problem in OGL and it also runs fine in D3D. Just got to test now whether or not the text corruption problem is still there in D3D with these drivers. Anyone know what they changed in the 53.03 drivers for OGL not to work with buffer flipping set to Auto Select? Never had this problem before, I was using 45.32 prior to these new drivers. Thanks, Sid. "Malc" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:r6mEb.2433$[email hidden]...
