You really should find out how to toy around with direct x settings. I bet it's a simple setting they enabled for stunning graphics, but it screws over old games.


Ya think that just MIGHT be it? That site I handed you above... that's one of many great sites. Also... you could try posting at www.guru3d.com. They have some awesome support forums there. Maybe they can see the issue and fix it right away... or maybe if you search the forum... you will find a fix for your "bug".


It's not the card. It's a setting in the driver. The driver is universal. You put it on your system, the system reads for a profiler that tells it what opens to enable and disabled based on model of card.

I think I'm done messing with this. I stuck my old 6600gt in the 2nd pci-e slot. The 6600gt works fine, although performance is lacking.

FYI: Turbine is now considering this a known issue that is being worked on without an ETA. This is very good news .

I ended up canceling my account because of this issue. the spare 6600 that I put in as a 2nd card just couldn't keep up with my LCD's native resolution, and I couldn't really justify buying an ATI after spending $350 on my 8800gts that works fine in the rest of the games I am currently playing. Hopefully they'll get this issue sorted out soon. When they do, I will be back.
