CS:S Water Problems

Take A Look For Your Self:

http://img163.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img1...tec00021ro.jpg

Specs: xfx 6600gt using the sticked zeropoint drivers. 1gig ram, amd 2600+.

Ive tried the latest omegas, they are even more horrible, the whole game is bright yellow with corrupt textures.

Default Nvidia drivers yeild same results as zero point, everything seems to be normal except for the water.

PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THIS, IVE POSTED ON 3 FORUMS AND NO RESULTS YET, STEAM FORUMS RETURNED NOTHING AS WELL!!

The "famous" piss water effect. The problem is not the zeropoint drivers or the omega's. The fault is on the driver's in which they're based (Nvidia ). Don't despair, a solution is no the way.

the zer0point driver's shouldn't do that.

THESE are the drivers you have?

If so, something is awry if you're still seeing the gatorade river. Uninstall the drivers via the control panel, reboot into safe mode, run Driver Cleaner, reboot, install thsoe zer0point drivers there, and see if that fixes it.

Thats the map, CSS aztec and some other maps have green water, the high reflections are being forced, are you using the autoexec for CSS thats included with the zer0point drivers?
