Ati Radeon 9700 PRO video problems

[Muskusrat]

I have an Ati Radeon 9700 Pro 128mb videocard and it has some real problems with all grafic plugins. My screen looks like posted below (not good quality picture due to gif format). All games have this (some even worse). I use Jabo's Direct3D v1.5 video plugin (all other plugins where same result).

I have the grafhics Configuration set at Direct3D HAL Rendering Device and Anisotropic filtering set at 16x. Buffer display mode is triple buffer and advance option are hidden.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong cause I want to play my Nintendo 64 roms.

1. update your radeon drivers
2. use a different plugin if that doesnt work
3. use a different emu if that doesnt work
4. if that fails, get a nvidia, u cant go wrong with those babys

hei, i bought a new video card (geforce 2 mx 400) togay, and i´m with the exactly same problem of the gauy with the radeon, whats going on?

[Stezo2k]

strange, i wouldnt suspect this would happen on an Nvdia card, they are ment for pj

Try to disable anisotropic filtering. Or try to change something in the settings of your video card

Hey i already know whats happening, actually i dont know whats happening but i can solve the problem, just reinstall direct x 8.1 and everything gonna work!!
I was with the same problem and know its running n64 very well.

bye!

Nope this didn't fix my problem

Have you tried uninstalling PJ and reinstalling? The \uninstall directory has some reg-files to do the trick. Additionally, try running DxDiag in the program files\directx -folder. Check that everything is OK on the "DirectX Files" tab and try fiddling around with the properties on the "Display" tab (disable-enable-disable)

Strangely enough, the later option sometimes helps when I have issues with graphics in games... though I'm a Geoforce owner (GF4 MX 440).

Hope this helps!

Try this, it worked on my Radeon 9700 (had some odd problems as well):

1. Uninstall PJ64, by double-clicking each 3 reg files.
2. Delete the PJ64 folder
3. Install the following drivers: http://mirror2.ati.com/drivers/wxp-w...0-6193-efg.exe
4. Reboot
5. Install PJ64

Now... try to run it without modifying any graphics stuff or setting any options... sounds odd, but once it runs ok it keeps running ok no matter what you change

Those new beta drivers for the Ati Radeon 9700 Pro did the trick. Thanks for all the help and tips people I can now play my Nintendo 64 roms again and they looks smooth with my new videocard
