7800GT w/o D3D?

[Xahok]

When I do "dxdiag" and run the test for the direct X it said I pressed a button to cancel the program and I didn't.

Also when ever I try to run any HL1 game, it wont let me run in any hardware mode at anything over 640 x 480. Not really the most important thing, but I would like to know what causes this.


Yes I have the latest version of Direct X (december) and video card drivers.

I also can play HL2, FEAR, CoD2, GW, and BF2 with not problems.

Got all the updates for the game?

 

[Xahok]

I have steam...

 

[digitalx0]

reinstall video drivers (or try different versions)

HL1 it´s like what?... 9 years old? that´s also whack! just put a TNT to play that game

 

[Xahok]

any other suggestions?

I also get this when 3DMark05 trys to run in 640x480 mode...

It really brings down my scores.

 

[VulturEMaN]

have you tried new vid card drivers yet? that sounds like the most probable thing...

 

[Xahok]

Yeah, I even did the Beta ones.

 

[Xahok]

Anyone have the same problem?

 

[Xahok]

bump

 

[Borgschulze]

Remove old drivers?
Chipset drivers?

 

[Xahok]

both still same problem

i have discovered that the OpenGL work for HL at any res so thats good. I just wanna know why it still doesn't work though.
