BATTLEFIELD 1942 Players INSIDE PLZ

Hi guys I'm having a problem, I need to know WHAT DRIVERS YOU ARE USING to play this game on a 9100/xps.

Please provide a link or an exact name of the file you downloaded, thank you soooo much!

Jeff

I'm currently using the latest 4.7 CAT's from ATI's web site:

also don't forget that they need to be modded with this to work:

Good Luck..

Catalyst 4.7 hacked w/ PatJE's modder. Runs perfect, although I always gotta kick AA and AF way up to make the game pretty.

Runs fine with the drivers the machine came with from Dell.

Try a format? This might be going a little far, but it sounds like there is some setting that is screwed up. Have you redownloaded the patch (1.6) from EA more than once?

yes ive done the FULL patch and the patch from 1.5 to 1.6 doesn't seem to make a difference. Well I guess format might be the only choice...or else I just wont play on this

Im using the latest Omega drivers. Do a search to where you can download it. I clean/fresh installed Windows XP and did not install any other video drivers besides the Omegas .. just to let you know.

Ok well WTF is that, I buy a laptop for 1300 dollars thats a "desktop/gaming pc" and the only way to get it to play BF is to erase it all and reinstall EVERYTHING? Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr this sucks!
