doubt you can unlock any pipelines, atleast i cant with my 7800gt.

for the other problem, tried uninstalling drivers cleaning with drivercleaner and reinstalling them ?
 
i ll try to update them i had 81.90 i didnt install lates cause i had problems with videos coming in a white shade instead of normal colours, i ll post later after updating thanks
 
Hi limqareb

I take it that you are running the latest patch (1.22) for BF2? I'm almost certain that this patch addresses issues with the 7800 series cards. Also as far as trying driver version 81.90, I have read of people having the same issues as yourself and they had tried that version. Many say that the 84.43 drivers and above have solved their problems. Guru of 3D will provide you with even later beta versions, feel free to try them. Failing that, I would suggest that you use Driver cleaner, and be sure to follow kemps guide to the letter, if you fudge the cleaning process you may be in for a world of grief.

As a last resort, if the latest drivers/BF2 patch or driver cab cleanout don't fix your issues, I'm afraid you may need to RMA. Keep us posted, and best of luck :)
 
i got the guru 3d drivers using 84.56 but i will redo using driver cleaner , rma is the last thing i would want to do
 
i try to run rthdribil and i get some error!

Generic application error. enable debug output for detailed information

Apart from that is the card performing better, or still giving you grief in BF2?
 
it is good in bf2 only when i press alt tab to switch window iget a brief picture of lines and it is slightly jerking when in a jet or heli @ 1280*960 4x AA, is this cause the card is not fast enough or some ohter issue , thanks for the interest PV
 
1 GB the other 512 is not connected cause i think the ram slots are tired and i have a sad print screen, had to reduce resolution cause of size

Hi, maybe your gfx card is defective... best thing to try is to install it in another PC then u will see if it works. Good luck ;)
 
if i put the ohter 512 i get a long beeping noise i think mobo ram slots , but is it the gfx card or is it not i need to be sure!, if i play bf 2 at lowest i have no problems
 
I'm at work atm, but I'll be home around 12.00pm (GMT +10) and I'll leave a few other things to try. Hopefully we'll get her fixed for you mate :)
