Quote - Looks like your OpenGL preview is totally messed up.
Not surprising. It's an ATI graphics card. Those are good for DirectX graphics under Windows 32 bits (which means games) and not for anything else. The ATI hardware is fine, but their drivers are either lousy or non-existent when it comes to something else than DirectX and Windows 32 bits.
The situation may have changed with their new DirectX 10/Vista capable graphics cards. I wouldn't know about that.I recommend replacing the ATI with an nVidia graphics card. nVidia has good solid OpenGL support, and good solid XP64 and Linux support in all of their drivers.
Ok I'm not surprised and kind of relief is only the VGA.
Now svdl - whic one do you advise mne to use? I was wondering about that since day one that nocited the MOBO with Nvidia based chip will not gpo along with Ati VGA.
Ok, now withouth blowing up to space my pockets..wich one from Nvida do you think will go along with my sistem?
Note that I'm a hobbyst affecionado and not a professional earning lots os dolars with my art... I wished ..but reality kicks backs!
open to your words pal.
thanks,
BTW yeah all my Win XPPro 64 bits is updated drirect from Microsoft will ALL possible sh...Microsoft force us to engulfed..inclusive direct x 10!
