Hi all
I recieved a machine to run my PMRJ FO side on the other day and the specs are this:
Pentium IV 2.5
512 MB RAM
nvidia 64 MB Geforce 2 MX400
WINXP
When I first installed and ran the PMRJ demo, it benchmarked really well considering the slow RAM and low video RAM/age of the card, but I decided to update the drivers to the card from nvidia's site and now I only get a highly artifact-induced image with a Open GL benchmark of 1. When it was running I got around 278.
I did nothing except update the drivers. Also, this machine runs Whazzup really well- no issues at all. I will say that this issue didnt crop up immediately after installing the newest nvidia drivers for this card (which are a few years old) but it may have started after loading GetWx and Whazzup, but those two run great.
Ideas? Im frustrated! I also uninstalled PMRJ and reinstalled. No joy (yet!).
Thanks,
