Default MOH blank screen

I have been using Omega 3.7's for a while now, with no problems. I had
problems with 8 and 9's. I just installed 3.10 thinking everything would be
fixed. The 3.10's have been crap. Sometimes, for some reason, the video
drivers seemingly stop working or 'drop out' so to spea, and my CPU is doing
everything while i'm on the desktop.

Also, MOH Breakthrough sometimes starts with a blank screen.. black. The
sound is working so i know the game is working, but isn't being displayed at
all. I have to restart for it to work again.

So unless i find solutions, i suppose i'll be reverting back to 3.7's for
the 3rd time, until they come up with a better set of drivers.

By the way, the 3.7's are just great, and problem free. I recommend them to
ATI users over any of the newer versions.

Unless, you want to play Star Wars: KotOR.

My 3.7's work great with KOTOR.

Although i have to add something.. MOH Breakthrough is not working AT ALL
actually. Not just sometimes. So i'm going back to 3.7's in about 2 minutes.

Try alt-tabbing, out of the game, with FSAA and AF enabled...

No reason. But, since the 3.7's work just fine for you with that
game...enjoy. My experience was a crashing OGl driver, whenever FSAA and AF
were enabled. Alt-Tab'ing, out of the game, would reproduce the crash
instantly. Game would crash, randomly, if I never Alt-Tab'ed out of. All
crashes referenced the file atioglxx.dll. The OGl file version, in the
3.7's, appears to be a bit 'dated' for this game. But, I'm using a 9800XT.
Switching to the 3.8/9's solved my problem due to the newer version of
atioglxx.dll.

And, I'll be damned if I'm going to disable FSAA and AF to play a game when
I paid $500USD for the card
