After searching on this site for the above listing I did find a thread for CS and XP and it sort of hit on the trouble people have found for trying to run this old game on newer machines. I have seen patches and .ini file listings to help but it seems the old game just does not have a 'fix' for ATI gpus and was wondering if this has been addressed lately. Is running the game on software mode rather than hardware mode the only way? Thanks to any and all.
