| So I'm trying to start up CoB for the first time in a while and I've got a video bug that won't let me. I run a 9800GTX card driving two monitors, main is a 1920x1200 widescreen and sidebar is a 1200x1600 fullpage. This setup has worked flawlessly through at least three upper-end nVidia cards and countless driver updates. Now, I get about one-quarter of the splash screen on the main display and nothing else. When I start in safe mode, I get a full (grainy) display, but the mouse cursor is off by about 1/20 of the vertical height - I have to position the pointer a ways below the click point to get it to highlight. I've tried a number of setting changes but with the screen screwed up it's hard. I can't fix the problem - yes, I've rebooted the system, etc. The ONLY change I've made to the system since the last successful session was to update the driver to 177.79 a week or so ago. Have been no other problems. Is this a known bug? Is there a fix? Cheeze, I get a City jones and can't scratch it! -- = The UPDATED v1.80 Keybind, Macro & Emote Guide for I8 = is available on HEROICA! - http://www.dgath.com/coh/ = @Shenanigunner (Victory server) & the ALTGAMESCOH channel |

| N'mind. Yep, the 177.79 drivers are buggy, apparently under Vista 64 only. I'd swear they were noted as WHQL, but the DL page now notes them as WHQL Candidate. Rolled back to the last set and everything is fine now. Of course, now I'm out of time to play, too. Life ain't fair. -- = The UPDATED v1.80 Keybind, Macro & Emote Guide for I8 = is available on HEROICA! - http://www.dgath.com/coh/ = @Shenanigunner (Victory server) & the ALTGAMESCOH channel |
