Problem with Direct3d and Opengl on x600

XHPrime · May 4, 2005, 05:01 PM

[color=black]I have an HP Pavillion zd8000 with a ATI Mobility Radeon X600 and have been using it for about 2 weeks now. I have installed the latest drivers for my Graphics card from the Omega Website

My Problem was before installing Omega Drivers: After a while of using my computer I got screen glitch and eventually the screen just went blank, although the LCD Display is still on (i can tell because of the screen glow). Now whenever I boot up normally after the windows loading screen it just goes blank. I can boot into safe mode fine but do not know a fix for this problem.

I fixed this by using Omega Drivers but now when I run DxDiag It i stating I cant use Direct3d and that my available video memory is n/a(whats with that). when I run Call of Duty it says it cant run OpenGL. Right now I have hardware acceleration set to one below max on the slider under Display>Advanced>Troubleshoot. If I set the bar to max the screen glitches and I get alot of lag, but even with the slider set to max I get the opengl and direct3d problems.

I am wondering if I should switch Drivers or if theyre is a fix to these symptoms.

Try updating Radlinker; I'm not sure the version with those Omega drivers understands your x600, which is why CoD is seeing things like:

DDraw Status: Not Available
D3D Status: Not Available
AGP Status: Not Available

You might have to wait a bit, and use mfr drivers, until ChrisW & Omega can get an update out for your card, too...

Yo XH Prime untill the OMEGA drivers come out you should just use the crap Catalist 5.4 drivers from ati.com

Note, to use official CATALYST drivers you will need to modify them using Mobility Modder
