EDIT: NO OFFENSE!

Also for some reason i had to install the older version for my driver because it said for my driver that the version was 96.86 and i have to update to 96.85 and paintball 2 works. I don't really get that.

Well, i don't recomend to install older drivers, as they might be more unstable etc. , but if you have no performance issues... for paintball everything <3.

Post by: flip on June 02, 2011, 05:32:33 PM: It could be something simple as playing at the wrong resolution or something. I used to crash with the same error messages but muggins told me to just play at full screen and poof it stopped giving the error.
