Half-Life Open GL / Tnt 2 problem??

[The Wildcard]

Hello, I am running a CL TNT 2 Ultra in Open GL mode under Half life. I was running at 800x600 resolution and everything looked great EXCEPT the fact that all the text flickered, including my GUN, the MENUS and the STATUS BAR.

The textures did not flicker, so all the walls, sky and ground LOOKED FINE.

So when i tried lowering the resoltuion down to 640X480, all the flickering was gone!

Does anybody know how i can fix this?

Note: I am running Nvidia's latest offical 5.22 drivers.

I had that same problem once and it was solved by uninstalling the cards drivers and reinstalling them. Don't ask me why, but it worked.

Technically, Half-Life is a load of f*cking $hit.....so buggy it's unbelievable, crashes all the time, messes up, screws up after patching, etc......so all i can say is welcome to the world of Half-Life I've had a problem once where it'd go away with lowering the res to 640x480.....

usually, it helps to uninstall, reinstall, and apply the latest patch (1.0.0.5 to latest ONLY or you'll get problems (f'ck you to hell Valve)), and it'll be stable for a month again if you're lucky

oh, and aren't the latest drivers called 5.32 or something?

PS: sorry for the language but this continues to piss me off so much

I've got the same problem. I switched to D3D and problem solved.
