Go HERE to download the ATI treasure chest demo. It runs fine on my geforce 3 ti 200 card as well. I ran it at full detail full screen and was getting a consistent 29.95-30.06 fps with all options turned on. Its a pretty demo. I wonder since I hovered so close to 30 fps if thats a fullscreen refresh rate issue or what.

Anyway, download and run it and tell me what fps you get if you would. I also wouldnt mind a link to a screenshot of a radeon 8500 user just to compare visual quality.

Thanks!!

Ok, help for the challenged (me)

I double click the treasurechest.exe and the program starts. I see a window with an option bar, but it ignores me and goes to a full screen demo of a treasure chest rotating with some red, a green, and some darkened circles.... now what....? there is no indication of framerate and no place for me to select any options? Do I let it run for a while and it moves on to something else? I tried clicking on the dots and saw the display change....?

What am I missing?

(I'm not on an ATI, but curious none the less)

Same thing happened to me.. Force it into windowed mode by hitting alt+Enter.
Then you can access the toolbar. Set it up to show framerates (I think it is Shift+S), and then alt+Enter back fullscreen.
