Glitch of Hell

[Wookiez]

Endlessly i have been trying to fix this VERY annoying glitch i have had since i bought the Geforce 6800 GT, previously i owned a Geforce FX 5700 256MB card and this did not happen. This also happens in CS:S i have tried countless drivers and messed with endless options, and nothing seems to fix this problem, does anyone know how to fix this, it would be nice to play HL2 and CS:S with out this glitch ruining the whole game.

Whoa, I sometimes get a glitch where the cubemaps go all purple, like its reflecting a default texture, I alt-tab, then back into the game and its usually fixed.

All the brushes that are simple shapes are fine... weird. :|

How the hell does that happen?
It's so colourful. . .
I'd hate to mention, but it could be a faulty card, how do other games run?

Also, have you tried using earlier DirectX versions?

Wow, that's cool. I hate the 50% blur effect in the menu, it gets me pissed coz i cant see whats going on. Is it like that in the game
??

The glitched bits are all static props, that is, models, not brush geometry, if that helps.

Is your card over-clocked? Try setting it to factory defaults. Check the temperature too. Open the side of you PC and then try, to let cool air in.

Maybe try 3rd party modified drivers. I use them on my ATi card and prefer them.

Noooo, leave it. It looks so pretty!
