New Omega 2.5.90 and CoH

EvilMike · Oct 2, 2004, 01:39 PM

Wiped out my old Cat 4.8s and installed these bad boys yesterday. Now when I play City of Heroes I get a bunch of graphic slowdowns and sometimes even glitches on the screen usually from the bottom. I had no problem like this with the 4.8s so I disabled AI, everything is set to application preference, my card is a 9800Pro at stock and it still happens. Any clue?

Just wandering, is there a way to enable fast writes in Omega drivers? The circle to turn fast writes on is greyed out, was just wandering if maybe this will fix my problem or not. Everything else works fine, awesome performance in benchmark programs, CoD, etc just CoH hates em for some reason

Well, I'm having the same problems with CoH, I'm using a mobility Radeon 9700 with 128MB of RAM.

So it isn't your hardware.

And IIRC the option to turn fastwrites on/off is only during the install process.

Bump, Anyone know to re-enable fast writes on the new Omegas?

u can re instal, or simply enable fast write in ur bios

restart and press esc until u get in ur bios, than search until u find fast write.

but fast write is only for amd64, so if you don't have one of does do not enable it, it will only cause more trouble
