Arma- texture glitch/error

[King_snuggleton 0]

Everything plays and runs fine. That is until I hit the error with textures. Certain objects (like vehicles and infantry) are subject to a kalaidescope texture pinch. It looks as if the texture were being held in place as they were stretch across the screen giving my screen a kalaidescope of texture panes. I believe i've seen the problem discussed here previously but I couldn't find it. It rights itself when I minimize. I was wondering if there was anyway I could permenantly fix it.

This is the thread you wanted...click me now

It's under the heading ATI drivers but i'm also experiancing this unplayable bug and i'm using a NIVIDIA GPU. So far there's only one fix i can find and that's to set your settings to low and maybe have some on normal. Another quick fix is to change your screen resolution. Believe me i've tried anything to solve this issue. I can only play on the smaller test island as it doesn't happen there as much. Maybe because there are far fewer objects which is what i find is causeing the glitch. Trees, buildings, stones and sometimes shadows send my game into chaos.

You might want to post your system specs, at least your graphics card and driver version. What gets me though is that there's been no official or even unofficial explanation to whats causing this. Some say GPU overheating but that's crap as Arma is the only game i get this error with.

I've tried everything too.

I have a Sapphire Radeon 9600 pro atlantis. with latest drivers. pentium 4 and uh 1.5 gigs of ram.

I've tried everything too, updated drivers, changed the video settings and resolution a million times, the list goes on. I gave up and posted on here in hopes of finding a real fix.

Since this issue seems to be more widespread than one might have suspected why hasnt BIS commented?

I can understand BIS not commenting on every single thread on these forums (as the troubleshooting threads must look pretty scary to the devs) but i can't understand why none of the more experianced computer users don't have an answer. There was a member who changed his graphics card from ATI to NIVIDIA becasue he believed it was a ATI driver problem, but like i said, i have a NIVIDIA card and i'm getting this issue. I too would like an official word on this problem even if it was to direct us to the cause of the problem and it not being ArmA that's causeing this.
