Default Halo on Ti4200 - green Sniper Scope

When playing HALO (Demo version - available from M$ website) on my
system, when i switch to ZOOM mode for the sniper rifle - the viewer
is basiclly ALL GREEN.

There is some nore HUD data that looks fine (like arrow showing my
team, etc)... and I tried to ZOOM in and out... but it stays the same
solid color.

When 512K of video RAM was a lot!

Night vision scope. Press the 'torch' button when zoomed in to turn it
on or off.

My arse. My first REAL computer (I was 7) had 3.5k of total ram. Step
forward 10 years and I was excited when I got a computer with 512k ram.

Forget this half meg of VIDEO ONLY ram.

The Incredible HULK has been seen leaping all around the ring world

I had dreams of getting the 8k RAM card for it... but got the C=128
instead. My Amiga 1000 had 512mb... getting 2mb for it ROCKED.

Luxury! My first machine was a ZX81, 1K of memory (shared with frame
buffer), no colour, no sound! :-)

er... thats not it... Flash light/torch button... I get greenish
rather than brownish flat colors.

Again.. when using the rocket launcher and Sniper rifle on the DEMO
game - when pressing the ZOOM button - all I see is 1 single shade of
color. Like ALL BROWN (ground) all green (grass) all blue (sky). the
zoom factor says x2. HUD data looks fine... but nothing to see.

This is the whole screen.

Using the 45.xx drivers. Ti4200

When I used 5x.xx drivers, other games would not work correctly...
crash out all together.
