I have alot of tearing in my BF2142 game. I dont know what is causing it, and was hoping someone here might help.

My specs:
AMD 3700+ @ 2700mhz
ATi x800gto2 256mb @ 500core 600mem
2 gigs syst ram
ASUS MW221U LCD 22" widescreen 1680x1050

I've tried turning on 'wait for vert sync' and is better, but still there

I then put in a x1950pro 256mb and the tearing is almost gone with 'wait for vert sync' on.

Others have said that they do not see any tearing with their Nvidia cards. I remember one was a 7950gt 512mb without vsync enabled.

What is going on here? Do I need to enable vsync and loos frame rates so i do not get tearing? Or is there something in the Nvidia drivers that keeps this from happening in the first place?

Anyone here know?

I just dont want to reformat my pc to get the ATi drivers removed to test out an Nvidia card. lol
