<div class="IPBDescription">(DODforums couldnt help me)</div> Win XP
Pent 4 2.0
Geforce 4 MX 440 128mb(gateway version)
-nv4_disp.dll 6.13.10.3082
256 ddr ram
80gig hd
1280x1024 32bit desktop
17" flatscreen monitor
in game:
openGL 1280x960
default mode
-32bpp
(this is the only thing that sorta works, read on)
if i run a game from ASE or gametiger it runs fine. well except i can see a strip on the top and bottom of my screen where the desktop is(like im playing in wide screen mode). if i hit "esc" to change any settings and go back into game, my resolution is screwed to hell. I only get the top right corner of the game screen and colors are flickering and choas is supreme. normally this isnt a problem because i just join a server and stay there and my fps is good and the game is very playable. but if i exit out i have to restart HL. also if i try to make a lan game the resolution does the same wide screen mode and i can see the main game menu taking up 25% (the top right) of my screen over game action. then when i exiit to menu and back the display goes all screwy. so i cannot make lan games. i have the counterstrike retail as my hl.exe becuase it is all i have. If i try to run it in direct3d i am missing textures, sky textures flicker, and my mouse has an unwelcomed delay. this problem occurs with all mods (TS, NS, CS, DOD, FA, VS).
i can post screens if it will help.
i have updated all my drivers and tryed everything from my destop resolutions to color depth. I also tried changing my desktop to 1024x768 and then the game resolution to the same. i still got the problem of the game menu taking up the top right corner of my screen but i am able to esc out and then go back into the game and it works ok. but when i esc out to the menu the thing is very off center.... like its halfway off the screen to the right. crimeny
