themightysrc Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Hi, This is really a minor league plea for help, as it doesn't affect the game per se. I recently reinstalled OFF due to a major XP screw up, and I was reminded that the intro movies that used to run so sweetly and look so good went West some time ago when I was still running pre-crash. What happens now, if I try to view a movie (eg, the credits) is that it does fire up but does so with an extremely lurid palette of greens, reds, blues, etc. You can still pick out the aircraft shapes, and the actual movement on screen is fine, but the LSD effects are quite overwhelming. I'm sure it's actually an XP thing, but I don't know how to fix it. Any ideas? thanks, Si Quote
UK_Widowmaker Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Are you sure this isn't a video driver issue?...if you are using the default ones that ship with XP...you should update them, because they will be ancient. Quote
themightysrc Posted December 15, 2009 Author Posted December 15, 2009 Hi UKW, I'm running a Radeon card that I recently purchased (top of the range for AGP - ie, not that powerful), and I think that the drivers are all up to date. But I'll check. Thanks for pointing out the obvious! Cheers, Si Quote
themightysrc Posted December 15, 2009 Author Posted December 15, 2009 Cheers Al - I'll check that out too. Quote
