5.14 and Counter-Strike
Lately, I've been getting random lockups in Counter-Strike (maybe in HL in general, but I don't play anything but Counter-Strike). I'll just be going along and then my screen freezes and the sound just loops over and over.
Lately, I've been getting random lockups in Counter-Strike (maybe in HL in general, but I don't play anything but Counter-Strike). I'll just be going along and then my screen freezes and the sound just loops over and over. This has been a problem with any driver later than 3.66 (3.69 and 3.78 locked my computer at the desktop). I can go back to 3.66, but I lose a lot of performance. Has anyone figured out a way to keep from locking up? I've noticed this problem running UT in D3D, but like I said, it happens in CS in OGL. So, it's not an API specific thing. My system specs are:
Athlon 650
Gigabyte 7IX
160 MB PC100
Guillemot Xentor 32
Windows 2000 Professional

hmmm i got also problems with de 5.13 drivers. But the 3.78 drivers worked just fine under Counter-strike.
But when i play Soldier Of Fortune with 5.13 drivers there are no lockups and the strange thing is both of the games use the Quake2 enginge so it must be an Halflife issue but i think it is fixed in the next halflife patch that is comming up soon

Counterstrike is an add-on for Half Life! Therefore all graphic performance is dependent on Half-Life!
I went back to the 5.13 drivers and my framerate is normal when i play Q3 TF mod but with the 5.14 drivers i get 2fps in the Q3 TF mod or any other mod. Single player is fine with both drivers only problem is 5.14 and mods. also there is a new BIOS for geforce and TNT1/2 cards the link is on www.3dgpu.com

Where can you find the 5.14 driver? The 3.78 keeps freezing my system.
Thanks Rattdawg. I got the drivers and everything works like a dream now. No freezes, no crashes. I also got some voodoo2 drivers for my #2 pc and now I've got fragfests running on Win2000.
