Need for Speed Underground issues?
Running cat 3.9's on a 9700 Pro - 3d graphics in game look great, however
menus are scrabbled - can't even figure out how to customize the car - certain options appear garbled in the car customization menus. -- Don Burnette |

Using 3.9/3.10 beta (COD patch) on a 9600p and all is perfect.

My solution was a little different. I checked out the forum at the NFS
Underground site, and there was talk that setting the d3d setting to high quality versus perfomance solved this issue for some. I did just that, and it has solved it for me as well. I just set it to custom settings in d3d, moved the sliders over to high quality, set vsynch off, and set aa and anistropic to application preference. Seems to run very well now.

I'm having a couple issues too. It plays beautifully.....at 800x600. Any other resolution stops rendering...the game continues in the background - I can hear all of the sounds, but the screen freezes. Works like a charm at 800x600 though, and it is a lot of fun! Anyone else experiencing this? |

Mmm odd ! I had the opposite problem, I installed Underground, while I was still using the Cat 3.7 drivers...(NFSHP2 was running fine, so I hadn't bothered to up-date). Had that garbled text thing, put the new Underground patch in using the Auto-update thing (Which was a damn pain !), Still garbled text.... So in with the Cat 3.9 and Yippie ! Problem solved ! It now flies !! Everything maxed out, and the 'motion Blur' on.. which is an awesome effect !!! Up to race 19 so far ! Catch you on-line sometime -- Ho Hum Jez |

Ok ATI has not been able to help me so I'm trying here before I
convert back to NVIDIA!!!!! I have a Sony GDM-4011p monitor,9800Pro running under XP w/Catalyst 3.10.... My desktop will not run in 800x600. The screen is so big that it extends of my 20in. monitor, it's wierd cause the desktop w/shift off the screen (Panning)when I move to the extreme top.bottom or L & R... The reason I need to run in 800x600 is for some games... When entering some games like NFSU I can't even see the menus to start the game. I have tried a clean install also. If I put in a FX5900 I can run the desktop at 800x600 w/no problems and I can enter the game w/no problems....... Sorry for the long email, but I wanted to explain all. Please help so don't have to convert.... and not playing the game is not an option.... Thanks Brasco |

This sounds like you're in the "virtual window" mode when your desktop is
too large to accommadate the "tv out" when enabled. For example, on my system if I have the tv out enabled and my desktop is larger than 800x600, I get what you describe, e.g. can't see the entire desktop on the monitor. It's like you have a magnified viewport onto a much larger desktop. Moving the mouse past an edge causes the viewport to pan across the desktop. If this sounds familiar, insure the tv-out is disabled, don't have a cable even attached between the video card and a tv/vcr when booting I believe insures it stays disabled when rebooted. Running 98SE, Radeon 64 DDR VIVO (7200), pre "Catalyst" drivers so maybe it's got nothing to do with it ?
