*In paaaaiiin* ;(

I just bought the damn game, and it seems to dislike my graphicscard... either that, or perhaps my drivers (running newest Omegadrivers on a Radeon 9700PRO, tried older Omegas aswell). I have patched the game, reinstalled DirectX, and installed the newest Omegas... I refuse to install official ATI drivers just for this game... Have any of you had similar problems with the game?

(And yes, I've tried to mess around with the graphic settings in the 'settings application')

I would definitely recommend installing official ATI drivers anyway, but if you don't want to, you can always avoid playing it :D

I have a Radeon 9800 and whenever I have encountered problems, installing the latest drivers cures the problem.

It helps of course to have broadband (or a mate who does) as it's a 30MB download (oh for the days of 600KB drivers). :D

That sucks! However I can assure you it should work with the radeon9700pro, I have thesame card and I finished it twice :)

Also, as MDMaster pointed out, using the official catalyst ATI drivers is the best option anyway, even if you have a tv-out/in (works for me).

You can also download the 'bare necessities', without the Ati control panel and all that crap. It's half the size.
