Radeon problems in UT/Swat 3--need advice

[fdiskboy]

UT and Swat 3 both give me colored blocks randomly spaced out on screen. The games still play, but it's annoying as hell.

I can get Crimson Skies to play, no problem.

I'm figuring it's the video card--more specifically a setting I've missed somewhere.

Tbird 850
KT7-RAID
256MB 133 Ram
Radeon 32MB DDR
SBLIVE

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

you may want to try rage3d.com in there forums. may get a faster answear. also are you overclocking the card and what drives are you useing now also.

Nope, not overclocking. Using a Quantum 7200rpm 30GB drive. (Haven't got the system stable enough to switch the RAID part on)

Will check rage3d.com

Thx!

Hi,

I recently picked up the Radeon 32 Meg DDR and am having problems with UT as well. I can't run the game in full-screen mode. fdiskboy, are you having the same issues?

Thanks

No, I can run it full-screen, but I'm getting texture corruption or something like that. Colored blocks randomly appearing, and at higher resolutions, a black/miscolored bar in the middle of the screen. I thought I had it fixed by changing my z-buffer bit settings in Direct3D, but the problem came back....strange.
