Update drivers! If that doesn't work, rollback drivers! There's nothing we can do to help here. ATI and OgenGL don't really get along.

Try downgrading drivers.  ATI and Vista don't like to play well with this game.  :P

Keep it, it looks sick.  Normal water gets boring after a while.

that's why I didn't get vista again. I'm sticking with xp till ati decides to stop detectiveing around.

I would but it gets distracting haha. Especially since the top moves like how the water ripples, but the colors move along with where I'm looking.

When your high, colors do nothing.  Its only a myth about colors being cool looking when your high.

Yes, it can be hard to see people under that "water"
I did open a ticket at ATI website about this problem but never had a response :P
*Ordering a new NVIDIA Graphic card
Title: Re: what the crap is this?!
Post by: Garrett on March 31, 2008, 09:45:02 PM
NVIDIA is the way to go anyway.
Title: Re: what the crap is this?!
Post by: wafflez205 on March 31, 2008, 10:29:16 PM
definatly. NVIDIA is the number 1 graphic card.
/me wishes he had enough money to get one
Title: Re: what the crap is this?!
Post by: Garrett on March 31, 2008, 10:30:45 PM
NVIDIA isn't a graphics card, its the manufacture of the graphics card chip set.

Post by: wafflez205 on March 31, 2008, 10:32:15 PM
oops forgot to put in manufacture :P

Opps, posted and didn't see the 2nd page.

Don't know much about graphics cards, but I do know that you should always get one.

My unedited post was much better, really. I just had to put something here now I had posted.

Rick, i still cant believe u like ATI better then PCI.  I would much rather a PCI, I can max our 256mb on my computer, no higher.  This is Cameron's recommendations:
 * PCI Express Vid Card
 * New Motherboard
But.... Money is involved, sadly.

Not working. That weird water still there

Its your drivers.

You need to completely remove the drivers, reboot, then install another set of drivers.

If you install the drivers one on top of the other you probably won't fix anything.
