D3D Black Screen

[Milamber_NZ 0]

I'm not sure about the Half-Life black screen issue on XP, it runs fine for me on OGL. But I do have the BLack Screen issue with Operation Flashpoint. The game is running OK, but there is just no display, since OPF has no OGL support, Im not really sure what to do.

 

Some other D3D games run OK, Motocross Madness 2 is OK, but I have no sound in that, but thats another issue, I think my soundcard is dying on me

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

What drivers are you using?

 

I recommend that you use 12.41 from Nvidia, if you use Nvidia based graphic card.

Um, yes I am using the 12.41's Just like I said in my original post ;-)

Lo there,

 

This is a know problem with Operation Flaspoint. It does it in Windows 2000 too.

 

there is a patch on the operation flashpoint website to fix it, download that.

 

Get it at http://www.codemasters.com/flashpoint/download/ofp-win2kfix.zip

 

Davey out.
