Title: Graphic Problem. Post by: meanalessia on August 24, 2007, 04:56:13 am Hi! Well.. that's what happens in my game:

My system requirements ore OK, and my graphic card is an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400.:smile: I really hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.:D *attached image removed* Title: Graphic Problem.

Title: Graphic Problem. Post by: meanalessia on August 24, 2007, 06:00:02 am Yes i have, actually to solve another of these problems... A month ago...
I checked my driver version and the latest available, and my version is still the newest... :( Title: Graphic Problem. Post by: MissLoaf on August 24, 2007, 11:22:03 am Did you properly uninstall the old drivers before you updated to the new ones?
Title: Graphic Problem. Post by: nova-storm on August 24, 2007, 11:29:57 am That is what the issue is, even updating your driver might not help if your card is older. If your card is new and you have updated your driver it might be that you need to open your box and clean all the Dust out as well. Cards don't like to be hot. Lots of dust etc. will make them hotter and cause you to have issues. Now if you only are having the issue on the same lot, it might be CC plants that are messed up.

Did you properly uninstall the old drivers before you updated to the new ones? I guess I did, so I think I'll try to clean up the dust-I'm sure there will be lots of dust :D ...and let's see what happens. Thank you so much. Title: Graphic Problem. Post by: Tenshii~Akari on August 24, 2007, 05:21:47 pm I have some similar weird stuff going on with my year old laptop, but not with the trees... maybe a random exploding Maxis mesh or two, glitching up and flashing red graphics at certain times during gameplay, and graphics starting to flash on and off erratically in large neighborhoods, mainly Downtown. It has a ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 256MB video card, the newest DirectX, 2GB of RAM, and the most up to date drivers it can get.... (I've also tried downloading the latest video driver updates, but it turns out that AMD/ATI no longer supports Dell Inspiron E1505 laptops with their updates. :angry7:)
It's been happening for a while now, about a good seven months if I recall correctly. I even when it's properly ventilated it still happens to glitch up randomly. What's even worse is that I know the fan is working fine... am I working my video card a little too hard? Max settings or not, funky graphics glitches will still occur... :( |
