Graphic drivers help!!!!PLEASE

Maximusdan · 08-29-2009, 03:28 PM

Hi, I recently reformatted my windows xp profressional because i did not want SP3. So after i reformatted my computer, i downloaded all my drivers and updates again. The thing is my video game graphics have turned all fuzzy and weird, such as counter strike 1.6. I have an ati sapphire x1550 32 bit pcie, and it has been working fine,until the reformat. The graphics are not shown to be good and it has been giving graphic lag in games, recently. I am pretty sure i updated to the newest drivers, but im unsure what is going on with it, please help:/. Thanks.

K i fixed it up a bit w/ the new ati catalyst, but my games do not still have clean graphics like before. The models sometimes float, and their edges are not straight but messy, if you know what i mean. Do you think i should reconnect my monitor?

I will need the model number and name of the pc in order to help you here.
Can you find the exact pc online somewhere and post a link to it maybe?

In order to find or look up the correct driver for it, we will need this information
