Howdy all,
Ok my problem I am having is wiht the above mentioned
games, I can set all setting to max no problem, except
for the colour depth of the game, if I set it to 32 bit
depth, the game will lock up in a very dark gray, almost
black screen, then I have to ctrl-alt-del, my way out of
it, and re-start in safe mode (the game) set the colours
depth to 16 bit and all is well. The problem with 16 bit
mode, is some funkiness with how things look. Oddly
enough I can set the texture colour depth to 32bit, and
no problems. I fired a message off to EA games about
this, but I am not very hopefull for nay usefull response
from them.
Anyways a quick run down of my machine 2.8Ghz P4, Radeon
9800 Pro 256Mb video(catalyst 3.6) Windows XP-Pro SP-1,
all on a Abit IC7-G motherboard using on board sound and
lan. Single 80 gig WD HDD, and Liteon DVD Rom. With 1024
Mb Corsair DDR 3700 (TwinX 512x2).
any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
