 Thread : Having trouble with my card.

More Information

I have an ASUS S96J with an X1600. As many of you know the drivers for this card are crap. I installed the latest video drivers from the ASUS website and everything was working fine, but I would get lots of problems with games that used shaders such as EVE Online. I decided to install the latest Omega drivers instead of fighting with the ATI drivers. Everything is working fine except for Oblivion. The game itself doesn't run bad, but when I would go to certain areas I would get like a big black fog that would cover an area of the screen and the game would come to a crawl. I tried changes as many settings as I could, but nothing removed this problem. Does anyone know how to fix this problem with Oblivion? Thanks.

Lower your in-game video settings as X1600 isn't top of the line and Oblivion is quite taxing.
