WinXP Color Problems

Post by Slizerzak »

Is there anyway to fix this i've looked all over and messed with controls. Is it the drivers or is it just 8.2 version because i had correct colors with older versions.

I have no problems with Windows XP and the colors in the game. I suggest updating drivers/bios maybe?

Sometimes some other game messes with Radeons color settings and SPWAW starts looking little strange. In Radeon's settings there is color tab and turning Gamma and Brightness to default settings helped for me.

I have also noted color problems with XP,unless I play from a fresh boot with nothing else running in the background..You might also set the game to emulate Windows 98..
BTW,I play on a very high end system and it still had problems till I figured this out..

I run a Geforce 4 TI4400 and it runs fine... I would encourage you to visit the Nvidia site and download the latest drivers though... They make it really easy to download and install...

The next-to-last driver from nVidia was a distaster on my G4 Ti4200. Nothing really worked properly, and in Call of Duty image quality was worse than before.

The newest set is alright though. Works fine. [:)]

I agree, I downloaded the latest drivers two weeks ago and they work fine.
