Lately Ive been having these weird graphics when gaming non online games (whilst disconected). I first encountered this problem with Steam bought game called "Spellforce 1 platinum edition". Game would freeze for like 4 seconds then the graphics would somehow reset and then everything was jumbled and (game was running normally but graphics were not) and you could see boxes outlying moving objects and looked like something which was in its programing graphics stage. Well I noticed that the resolution setting was for 16 bit and changed that and had no problems.
Then tried playing "Warhammer 40k SoulStorm" (which I had on computer for awhile) and then the exact same symptoms occur as in the previous game.
The only thing I can think of is the Nvidia drivers (which are up to date) since I had read alot of problems occur from these drivers.
My system is an old 3.14GHz single core pentium4 running on WinXP 2 hard drives and a Geforce GTX 285. 3 gigs main memory. Ive never had any problems with gaming for years until now. Yes I try to do full installs of the OS every year, defrag, and never play while connected online (unless its an online game) or with the virus scanner running (unless playing an online game)
Can anyone here give me some hints to what is going on here?
