Server Pic's

Joined: May 15, 2007 Posts: 404 Location: Capital of Wales

A selection of Pics I have taken over the last few weeks on the Res' server. They were taken because in each of them appears to be something I havent seen before.

Pic 1: Karkand - No Smoke, see the hills in the background.
Pic 2: Karkand - Again, No Smoke, different part of the map.
Pic 3: Karkand - Zombie - Zombie bug where a revived troop has no weapon to carry (seen that before and recently) but this guy was floating off the floor horizontally. Seen more clearly on actual screenshot.
Pic4: Jalalabad - UAV been nicked, not just blown up. Still in place on mini map.

Can anyone offer any explanation? Seen the same thing aswell?

PS. If I havent hosted the picture's or tagged them correctly etc, sorry and please can someone advise me how to, I have searched and searched but cant see where it explains how to.

exactly what sort of images/video?
you shouldnt be opening video in explorer anyway, use Windows Media Player(WMP) or some other player like Video Lan Client(VLC)

Like the images in this post from 1927, it shows 4 boxes with 'AD' in the middle, and if I mouse over them they show the white box with a red cross!..As for videos I mean like if some1 post a link for youtube when I click it I get a page full of text instead of the video to watch!

I normally use Firefox browser, but since formatting I decided to try IE7 and the windows live stuff Rolling Eyes

Yeah the new Explorer is basically a Firefox rip off, except it still has all the crap and problems the old versions had Smile

tell me what version it says

Video BIOS Version : 5.43.02.75
Forceware Version: 84.21

I clicked the "Update" option and chose the update options: Graphics Card/6 Series/xp/2000 and it gives you the following:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_93.71.html

Do I need to download it and swap it for mine? If so havent I got to uninstall the previous driver first? I do have driver cleaner on my pc if that helps.

Thanks for the help Java.

download the file
uninstall your current driver (restart when prompted to do so)
install new driver (restart when prompted to do so)

should always try to run the latest gfx drivers, unless you have reason to believe that they are faulty.
