Hey all,
does anyone have an answer to my misfortune...

got the gf4400(visiontek) which has the CX25871 TV chip from Conexant on board.

I get wonderful TV-out from the card via s-video link. I can play most games and this is where my issue comes about

The titles that are gving me issues are the ones that require a refresh from the start.. such as UT2003 or SimCity4 or EA Sports or Ghost Recon.

games such as NOLF2 or hoyle games or hitman work wonderfully like they are on an Xbox or something

i'm guessing its a refresh issue...B/c even when i goto the nvidia tab in prp/setting/advanced/nvidia it will try and refresh and give me the dreaded BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH on my tv and then i have to reboot...

any help on the fix would be great
my specs are as follows
dx9.0
det drivers (latest)
athlon 1.2
asus a7v133
