Question renegade makes my viper card screen flicker bad

that pretty much sums it up. my kid is the one complaining. i forgot where is a recommended site to download a generic driver that is best compatible with the viper 2 video card. also any common problems causing the screen to flicker so bad. the resolution is on a 17 inch monitor with 800x600 and the performance tab in the game was set to the fastest display with the least detail.

Download the latest Detonator drivers from nVidia's official site.

Pardon my ignorance Doc,

But I thought the Diamond Viper 11 was a Savage chipset? Will the Nvidia reference drivers work with a Savage chipset? Is racerbrownn not better getting updated Savage drivers from Diamond?

Talking

yeah, the nvidia update didn't work. i don't think that diamond supports the chip anymore as was the reason to find a generic driver. i will try to browse the diamond site and see if i get anything. any other ideas, please post.

i downloaded the s-200 reference driver from www.diamondmm.com in the section for the viper 2 card but the latest driver was 10/00. i installed the current driver and card in 4/01. don't think i'm going to have much luck. is anyone else having any luck with the viper2 and modern games??
