Hey everyone,
just looking for some opinions here.... I'm building a box with an msi k7t266 pro v1.0, athlon thunderbird 1.3ghz, geforce 3, sound blaster live as the main components on the bench right now
Just got through sorting out the creative live drivers (sigh) and installed shadow warrior to test audio in DOS mode.
I noticed some artifacting on the screen which can be seen in this photo. At first I thought maybe my Geforce 3 card had issues, but I've tried 2 more and the artifacting persists in what seems to be the exact same spot. Using the 81.98 nvidia drivers. I recently ran 3dmark 99 in a loop on all three of these geforce cards and I believe I ran vmtce on them as well for a while and all came clean so I'm a bit baffled
Haven't tried different drivers yet but the thought did occur to me that a dos game like this is more likely software rendered I did swap a few different sticks of ram as well but this is persisting...
Any thoughts? What are the odds I just happen to have 3 geforce 3 cards with the same issue? What else should I be looking at?
