Blue Lines?

[makeshifttheory]

I run a MSI Board with Athlon XP 3200 Barton Processor, SB Audigy 2ZS, and Nividia Geforce 6800 OC w/ the Forceware 82.10 drivers (beta). The only problem I have is when I go to globe mode or bring back the zoom a bit it distorts the image until I zoom back in. It creates blue stripes across the map? Any fixes for this? By the way I have the new patch installed as well.

I am having the same problem with a 6800GT @ standard clock speed. I use the 81.85 drivers and have the 1.09 patch. When I zoom out to world view, I can see a few tiles with improvements on them, but the rest turns to horizontal blue and green banding. When I alt+tab to desktop and then reopen the game, the horizontal banding disappears for a turn or two. Is this a driver problem, a 6800 problem, or some configuration issue that isn't refreshing the tile graphics properly? I hope someone has some insight into this; I have looked around for a few days, but have been unable to find a solution. I plan on trying out the 81.89 drivers soon to see if they make a difference.

Yea I think it's just the card. I think I will ask the dreaded tech support haha. Seriously though, you have the exact same thing I have.

Installing the 81.89 drivers fixed it for me. I always use Driver Cleaner when installing new drivers, not sure if that would make any difference. I am now without any bugs/crashes/problems. Joy
