"Shocking" game-movies

[frenkyBoy]

Hello,

System: AMD Duron 650 mHz(not oced)
MSI K7T pro Mobo
GF2 Ti200 (Hercules)
320 mB mem
os. Win98Se
Drivers: video, detXP 28.11
via 4-1428

Intro and ingame-movies movies, like in Diablo2, Pool of Radiance are not playing smooth in image and sound.(choppie)
Movies made with the game-engine, like in Wolfenstein don't have problems.

I don't have this problem with my old vid-card, Viper 770 TNT2.

D3D, Opengl games are fast and no problem.
System is rock steady, and fast.

Need some tips.

Thanks.

Did you uninstall your old nVidia drivers before putting the new card in?

 

[frenkyBoy]

Thanks for your reply, BFG10k.

And yes, I completly uninstalled my old drivers (det5.22)

I'm thinking of installing the PCI latency patch, although my sound is good, and I dont have any instabillity problems.

Just these hicking movies!!

I think you mean 23.11 right?

Try the 4.35 4-in-1s. Also make sure you have the latest BIOS for your system.

do not use the updated via drivers what ever you do.......at least not the 4 in 1 get only the agp drivers and nothing else....all the rest do not work properly

It kinda sounds like your movies are only choppie when being played from the CD.

The "game engine" movies are from HD or rendered right?

I suspect it is not a video card problem, but perhaps an IDE or CDROM issue.


edit: make sure to uninstall your 4-in-1 drivers (using the setup.exe) and boot before installing another version.
you might also want to try putting your CDROM on its own ribbon (master) if not already. Sometimes sharing an IDE
with two devices causes access irregularities.

Drivers are DetXP 23.11.(sorry 'bout that!)

Thats good thinking Insidious, but the old vid-card, TNT2 with det5.22 didn't had the prob.

I have installed the "PCI Latency" patch from George E. Breese, but that didn't help.

I have not the latest BIOS, but I have updated 'till 2.5.

The last thing I'm gonne do (I think) is updating the via 4-1 drvr.

My system is ROCK steady and fast, only those *&!???* movies.

Thanks everybody!

The 4.35s work just fine, it's the 4.37s that gave me problems. Also make sure that when you install the IDE drivers you install them in DMA mode. For that matter, make sure that your CDROM is in DMA mode.
