Hi everyone,
I have recently purchased the "Leadtek Winfast A6600GT TDH" 128mb AGP
Card.
I am however experiencing graphics problems in two of my games – The
Sims 2 and Command & Conquer Generals.
During gameplay in C&C Generals, there are lots of small white or
black rectangles randomly on the screen, as well as thin diagonal
lines that appear and disappear randomly.
During gameplay in The Sims 2, again there are black rectangles that
are on the screen, as well as some ‘missing' graphics in the
‘bodyshop' part of the game.
These problems did not occur with my old graphics card (although it
was a lot slower!) and I have done the following things to attempt to
remedy the situation:
- I uninstalled the driver for the onboard graphics card BEFORE I
physically installed the new graphics card.
- Uninstalled and installed the latest nvidia drivers. (66.93)
- Tried the BETA nvidia driver 67.02
- Made sure I have the most up-to-date directX. (9.0c)
- Patched the games to the latest versions.
- Ran "dxdiag" with no problems found.
- Uninstalled and reinstalled the 2 games.
My power supply is only a Seasonic 300W - could this be causing the
graphical imperfections?
Has anyone else had these kind of graphics problems? Any assistance is
greatly appreciated!
