Hello All,

I downloaded the demo to test if Max Payne was something I'd be interested in. The only problem is that I get black flickering lins all over my screen (When in game mode). I have a voodoo5500 with the latest WHQL drivers supporting dx8, with dx8 installed on a windows2000 Pro OS. My machine is a t-bird 750 with 256mb ram, ata100 IBM HD and Microstar kt7-pro2a mobo.

I notice that I have a variety of resolutions and a choice between 16 and 32 bit when starting the game - the only acceleration option I have is d3d Software though - any ideas on why I have no hardware option and if that is perhaps the reason I'm getting the flickering?

Thanks
Nex

Same thing happens here under XP, 2000 and 98 on my GeForce DDR and on my TNT2U box. Double or tripple buffering has no effect. Niether does resolution or color. Between the two boxes I've tried Det 5.xx, 7.58, 14.10 (I think thats RC2 default) and 14.90. Will try Det4s tonight.
