HK (HunterKiller) 0 Posted February 25, 2003 They are customised drivers based on the catalyst 3.1's. I first used the Omega drivers when i had severe problems with another game and ATI original drivers, switched to Omega, boom sorted..... I got a 9700 (not pro) and it works just fine with OFP.

Corona 0 Posted March 2, 2003 Hmmmm, i had to format again ,but i think that i can play now .I can get further now,no crash to desktop anymore.I suggest that if u are have problems like these,do a complete format,install windows or linux,get all the updates & latest drivers,use norton windocter for the problems(regkeys that are no longer in use) and then u install OFP good luck!!!

Turn off "automatically restart" under "system failure". Now instead of rebooting, you will get a nice BSOD instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â <span id='postcolor'> Yep. I was hoping on a Geforce FX, but with that vacuum cleaner attached to it and the ridiculous price, I'm either going to get a Radeon or a Geforce 4.
