The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

CPU to AGP driver

Asked by stef4s in Miscellaneous Hardware

Tags: , ,

Hi

I have a

gigabyte 7vt600
1 gb of RAM
gigabyte Radeon 9700 Pro
etc

the problem that I have is that all of a sudden all my games (opengl and direct 3d) stopped working. there were triangular atrefacts in games (Unreal tournament 2004 and Quake 3 was tested) and after 5 to 30 seconds the game freezes.

Through a long process of elimination I figured out that it was the chipset drivers. If I didn't install the via hyperion or 4 in 1 drivers, games did not freeze.

Performance wise I still get +-28 fps in doom 3 on high quality. (without chipset drivers)  How good is this?

After installing Windows XP sp2 last night the artefacts did not occur in the games BUT the game still froze. (Rolled back the CPU to AGP driver which fixed the problem)

So my question is: Do the chipset drivers enable a sort of "hardware acceleration" and my hardware is poked and thats why it crashes? anybody have a similar problem and found a solution? (The drivers used to work fine)
