I am using a P4 CPU with Windows XP at 32 bits, I have even downloaded SP3 from Microsoft but nothing has worked. The ATI card cost me £100.00, last night I sent for an Nvidia 7600GT as most people seem to be using that one with no problems plus it only cost me £30.00. I have noticed too that my CPU fan runs into overtime when I fire up COD2 or COD4, I could swear that it never used to do that but it could just be me.

RE: Fed up
Phil,i just managed to get CM working.You might want to downgrade your drivers,as they don't seem to properly work with CM.

Yes,i am using catalyst.At first i installed the latest drivers i could find on the ATI website(catalyst 8.6,with the 8.5 drivers if i'm not mistaken).And it didn't worked.Then,i downgraded the drivers to version 8.411-there were on the CD that came with the card.And it miraculously worked Big Grin

RE: Fed up
Ok I have now replaced my £100.00 HD3850 ATI card :bang: and got an nVidia 7600GT for a fraction of the price and it does just the job. Even though I have fired up CMAK and played it with out any problems what so ever I now find that when I start up BB or AK the screen resolutions which are offered none of them work and I get the mesage this only works if it's 800 x 600, tried that but it still does not work. The barmey thing is I have already played AK and now it's asking me this :censored: Can anyone offer and explanation and better still a cure :bow:
