    Beyond Divinity/Divine Divinity on 7000 IGP?

    Hey, I'm reading a review of Beyond Divinity and it looks fairly interesting (all bugs aside). It's a new game, but the graphics don't look 3D intensive. Has anyone had much experience with either of these games? Are they performance hogs, or would they probably run okay on my system...

    Neverwinter Nights on 7000 IGP...shouldn't it be playable?

    You can refer to my system specs in my signature for more info. I know the 7000 IGP sucks, and is old...but it still seems like a game like NWN that isn't very graphically intensive should run playably on it, and yet I max out at 18 fps, and it's usually running at 8-12. That's at low...

    Looking for drivers for Radeon 7000 IGP (WinXP)?

    I downloaded the latest official catalyst drivers from ati.com but they claim to not be able to find any supported hardware. The release notes say that that release supports the Radeon 7000 series, but doesn't list the 7000 IGP among the mobile chipsets reported. Furthermore, I can't seem to...

    Quake 3 is blurry

    I've tried everything I can think of, but Quake 3 still looks very blurry to me. My graphics quality setting is set all the way to "Sharp" in the Display - Settings - OpenGL dialog box (Win98, by the way.) I'm using the highest texture quality setting and trilinear filtering, and also have...

    Fix for ATI DVD player working once, but crashing on subsequent launches?

    I get the same error message I've seen others list on this forum (about video card memory, and overlays, or something), but it only happens after the DVD player has been launched once before. I think I read somewhere that the DVD player doesn't give up the overlay when it exits, and that's why...

    Should I update MMC before updating the DVD player?

    I just got a DVD-ROM drive tonight (no DVDs yet so I can't test it out), and I've downloaded the latest DVD player. I've installed the CD version of the MMC/DVD player. Should I download and install the latest MMC (which I don't really use) before updating the DVD player?

    Can a bad monitor be the cause of image tearing?

    It seems as if, no matter what drivers, or even OS, I use, I get image tearing when I move objects across the screen. I also get some image tearing in games, whether in D3D or OpenGL, no matter what my VSync settings are (driver settings AND in-game settings.) Can low-quality monitors cause...

    Quick question: (Radeon/Linux/XFree86 4.0.3)

    Hey, I keep on noticing references to "poor unaccelerated performance" with the Radeon when using XFree86 4.0.3. I just ordered Mandrake 8.0 (Cheapbytes...$4! :) ) and honestly, I could not care less about 3D gaming in linux right now. I haven't even been doing much PC gaming lately in...

    BeOS Problem: Missing mouse cursor

    Hey guys, have the BeOS Radeon drivers been updated or anything? I tried the drivers (117kb) that were posted here earlier, and they work, except for the fact that I no longer have a mouse cursor. I downloaded BeOS 5.01 (personal edition, of course) last night, to play around with. I also get...

    Any reliable way to use the S3TC hack with UT yet?

    Anyone found a reliable way of getting the OpenGL hack (or D3D hack? Haven't been paying attention...) working with UT yet? I've been away for a while - I've pretty much ignored Radeon developments for about a month or two.

    Best (read: stable) drivers for Black and White?

    I'm running the 708x (forget what number the 'x' is supposed to represent) and I'll be damned if it doesn't lock up about every fifteen minutes. :mad:

    Blurriness in OpenGL applications

    Hey guys, I'm having a bit of trouble with OpenGL these days on my Radeon 32 DDR. Basically, in Quake 3 and Serious Sam (the only OpenGL games I've played recently), textures a few "feet" (in gaming terms) away from me become blurred. It looks like an extreme sort of mip-mapping, but texture...

    Cool...Post 200

    :) I originally was flaming an ATI basher but I realized that I didn't want a counter-trolling message to be my 200th. :D

    Question for overclockers: (slot fans)

    Are any of you overclockers using the slot fans (the ones that you put in place of a PCI/ISA/AGP slot?) I'm thinking about getting one...my motherboard has an AMR slot that, of course, I'll most likely never use. Does anyone know how effective these slot fans actually are? /me is using a...
