nothing !

Thank you very much for any help, and sorry for my english, I'm french.

[lilive]

Really nobody ?

[Urmel]

Have you got an Nvidia driver installed, in case you have - which version?

Oh and I see this VGA is a Turbo Cache one. Is there any possibility to allign more RAM to it?

AND your general video properties, are the colors set to 32bit?

[divVerent]

Well, no idea how to help with that, and 2.4.2 is pretty old now. Can you try the development build from http://emptyset.endoftheinternet.org/~r ... iz/builds/ to see if the problem persists, and if it does, tell me the exact problem report (with memory addresses)?

Many thanks for your answer.
My NVidia driver version is 7.6.4.5
Yes, I've set the 32 bits colors depth mode.
I will not buy more RAM (I don't play enough). I've currently got 256Mo video RAM.
I forgot to say that nexuiz 2.4.2 run pretty fine if I play with Linux. At least I can switch to Linux everytime I want to play, but sometimes I prefer do not.
Do you know if I could have problems trying update the NVidia driver ?

Ok, I'm currently donwloading the newest version.
I will come back after test, to write the news.
Thank you very much.

Hm... maybe you should install the Windows nvidia driver to the very same version as the one you have on Linux? That way it is a version of which you know that it works with your card. The 7645 driver is indeed VERY old, especially given that your Geforce 6200 should be supported even by the very newest nvidia driver.

[lilive]

Ok !
I update the driver to ForceWare 94.24 and it work !
I prefered use this driver instead the latest nvidia driver because I read it isn't the best thing to do with my card (and I was a little bit affraid by the size of the latest setup driver = 126Mo versus ForceWare = 62Mo)
Thank you very much to your helps, divVerent and Urmel.

( Now I've got a problem because I can't see the servers list, but it's an other topic... )

Bye and perhaps see you in the game.
