odd graphics problems w/ CSS

ive got a 9600XT and it seems to have odd graphics glitches in CSS. on dust2 there is massive polygon drop out, the boxes and doors/windows etc. are all just black voids. they still act as though they are there, you can jump on and around them and what not but its just really annoying. any ideas? i havent verified this on other maps yet, only dust2. i tried lowering the clock speed on my graphics card and that did nothing; it had always been stable before at the speeds i had it at; no artifacting. i was told that restarting the comp can fix this but i dont want to have to restart constantly to get rid of this issue...it shouldn't be like that to begin with. ive also got an odd issue with textures turning pink when i minimize and remaximize the program. again, this goes away if i restart CSS or sometimes if i just reminimize and then go back into it but its just really annoying. help??? :confused:
 
Funny that only happens to me when I tab out of the game and come back to it. Even then it only happens once in like, 8 tab outs. Happens a lot more too if i tab out of the game during load. X800 XT PE here.
 
Odd, I have a 9800Pro and never experienced this problem. Perhaps it's because I'm using DNA drivers, too.

I have an x800xt pE i have only see the black boxes one or two times.
I did tab out alot in this game too.

I am using 4.2 drivers
 
OMG thankyouthankyouthankyou i thought my x800 was faulty when this was happening. And i have been worrying about how i can prove what is causing this so i can get it RMA'd.

Im also getting another bug where the textures are "checkerboarded" and glitter like disco lights. It happens sometimes to buildings, sometimes to my weapon, sometimes to the hud and i cant read anything. I have reinstalled everything steam 3 times now.

It looks like overclocking artifacts but it only happens on dust, dust 2, office, and the water hazerd map in HL2

Anyone else getting this? Ill post screen shots when i get home.

I never tried alt-tabbing to get it to happen.
Edit: the graphical errors only appier in CS:S or Water hazard, not in windows or bootup.

You have a driver issue problem. I would reformat the HDD and reinstall the latest drivers from ATI and that should fix your problem.

Your ATI card is fine.

If you see boxes and glitches at first bootup like in your bios or system startup then the hardware is fux up
