@Phirax:
ive got a 9600xt; disabling ai didn't worked(done this trough regedit, 'cause i dont like the ccc, perhaps ive done something wrong, but cant imagine this though), the dna did.
ive had this prob too, 4.12b or disabling ai didnt helped much.
try the drivers from dna, the one based on the 4.11cat has fixed this problem.
remember to not uninstall your radeon-drivers before dna-installation, otherwise it wont find your vga.

bah, create an image with blindread (or alohol 120%) and mount this with dt or alc 120%. when you know the copy-protection you can select the approbiate one during alc's backup-process, when not look around, there are a lot of forums around which handle such stuff(howto create a working image...
you people know that easten europe ends at the ural-mountains?
perhaps doug doesnt know the difference between asia and europe, but i doubt that.
the modern "living-buildings" in hl2 look similar to the buildings found in most european towns(built between the 50' and early 70', cheap, fast...

perhaps most of the people disliking doom3 dont have the rig to play it in all its shinyness. i rarely mind about story in fps as long the action goes on. at least in d3 is a lot of story, but youll have to read those notes and emails you find.
story in hl2 is as dumb as in the most other fps. those conspiracy and alien stuff isn't really new, and this "you are directed by someone/something" / "you have no choices" sounds like matrix, the ending of hl2 strongly reminds me on max payne 1(the telephone scenes).
but they did the best...
re-preloading will help people with completely missing textures(wireframes) or textures shown in purple/black checkerboard or in purple.
when you have the bug with textures going sometimes "druggy"(aka rainbow-style) or pixelated errors(as it would be when youve oc'ed your gpu) don't have a...
its not the cpu, its the gpu. go out and buy something decent, like a radon 9800pro(and perhaps some ram). ive played hl2 on a 2.4+, 768mb(sdram, lol) and a9600xt, and it was absolutely smooth(except of those sound-stutters, which i reduced by extracting the gcf's), with every option on high...
have you noticed, that some of those ambient-sounds aren't be played? until some minutes ago i didn't even know, that they should.
after running the console i've noticed some errors about playing sounds from the "ambience" folder. so i decided to stop hl2 and check the files(ive extracted all...
meanwhile ive extracted all (hl2-)cache files into my hl2-folder, while it doesn't solve my "textures are going to become drugged" problem, it seems the stuttering has been reduced drestically. level loading times perhaps too(uncertain about this). after this, everytime i entered a new lvl...
