To Glith: The waterfall pixel effect is usually caused by problems with the VGA card's memory, either overheat or general failure.... I suggest you look at it because if it is caused by overheat you'll damage your card for sure


To wewe: This problems looks like a directX problem, drawing to the screen. Check in your bios if there is an option to repost VGA, that could help. The screenshot is as if there is are some problems with some functions of the card not working properly after you resume.Btw, what card are you using?

As for a benchmard, check this site out, find a freebie and check it out

I'd say it looks a lot like the Windows Marquee screensaver!!!

Try disabling Windows screensaver, it might interfere with MP...

Hi!

I had the same issue, but this was with 0.1.3.0 release. It did not happen with 0.2.0.0 anymore (up to now, maybe I used it a little less, no time).

Are your GFX drivers up2date? Are you using orignal or omega? I would suggest to try the originals.

Good luck.

BTW: If you want a dev to have a look at it, use the support template!

Had a similar problem... solved by upgrading from an ATI 9250 to ATI 9550. Other users reported no problems using 9250, however.

I found that the 9250 gave bad output also in the DirectX 3D tests, and tried in an other machine. There were some problems. So I had a faulty card, simply.

Here is a screenshot of my little problem.....

this is purely temp or memory error

Well.. The graphics card is quite new(have had it for a month or two)... MSI Geforce 6200 AGP

The card is not very varm and it occurs after getting back from standby(S3).

I have acutally had a similar problem with my old card but not as bad as this... a Nvidia 5200.

Recommendations? Buy a new graphics card again? :-/

Since I have a 50" HDTV I was thinking about a Nividia 6600 but I havent seen a AGP version with passive cooling...
My 6200 handles HD playback good but since the picture gets messed up after standby I must do something... I have already replaced the memory sticks on my MoBo but it didnt help.

could be your PCI (/AGP) bus... i.e. your whole board...
