| Hello everyone.I have a pixelview geforce 4mx 440 and I have problems playing mohaa.With my old card(diamond viper 550) everything was o.k. but now everytime the game goes to te first screen of the game(inside,not at the menus) it makes an instant shake and stay there.The hd is working for 5-10 seconds after,so I conclude that the problem is something with the drivers,the card and the display.I have the latest drivers,I have unistall and install the game many times,the only thing that work for a little was to disable direct 3d.The gam eworked with opengl for one minute and after the same thing happen.I disabled the vsync but again the same.I am afraid that meaby the m/b has problem with voltage at the agp,the shake is very unusuall at the start.Also I changed the card with the new one,but again the same.In the past these happened also in windows and in other games,but now only there.Anyne can help me? |

| You need to give us more info: What are your system specs? What CPU/motherboard/RAM/OS etc. |

Thanks for posting your specs. It is important to know your comp uses the Intel 440BX chipset. That uses the older AGP 2x 3.3V spec. Newer AGP cards use 1.5V and can be damaged if put incorrectly into an old mobo. Doing this can also damage the motherboard too. Newer cards should have slot on the card to prevent you putting it in though. First check the specs on your card to see if it supports the older 3.3V.
>I am afraid that meaby the m/b has problem with voltage at the agp
Did you try to put in your old Viper 550 in again? If everything works fine again, the problem is your new video card - process of elimination ;-) |

My post was deleted, so basically what I had to say was . ..
LEARN how to spell, make complete sentences and take some fing time when you post!!!! Put your post in MS word, and at LEAST check spelling/grammer.
I'm tired of reading post such as yours which look like a non-educated street dwelling child posted. Your spelling is lacking, your sentence structure sucks, plus you need to learn how to organize your ass babbish post. (if you don't know what ass babbish is, then ask)
All I ask for the FREE service that we give is a little respect.
