Arma Graphics Bleeding to White Screen

[scrapser 11]

I have Arma with patch 1.14 using WinXP 32 and have a dual boot custom PC with a DFI X58 board, 6 gigs of OCZ DDR3 RAM, a BFG GTX280. I also have an NEC 24" high end monitor. My power supply is 1000W. nVidia drivers are current release version (190.38). All my games scream except this one. BTW, I know WinXP 32 only sees 4 gigs of ram.

I tried playing the tutorial and got through the physical training (game was up and running about 5 minutes) when all of a sudden my screen slowly started bleeding weird colors then everything started fading until I had a totally white screen. I have never played this game and wonder if it's worth trying to fix or just go for Arma2?

I've read a few posts that suggest the later nVidia drivers have introduced weirdness with the graphics and maybe the beta 1.15 would fix my problem. Funny, I remember trying this game about a year ago and it ran fine. It just seemed really complicated to control and I wasn't up to it back then. But now I want to dedicate some time to learning it if I can get it working.

This does not bode well for Carrier Command...one of my all time favorite games from the Amiga days.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks much

Don't use the 190 series Nvidia drivers.

Use 186.18. They're great - and you should be fine.

Thanks...I installed them and everything appears to be fine. I hope the next new driver version addresses this issue.

I hope the next new driver version addresses this issue.

I wouldn't be so concerned about the next driver set...the 186.18s rock my world!

Glad you got it sorted out.
