Monitor shutting off when playing MSR

[Howitzchen]

Hi,

the problem: When playing metropolis street racer my monitor shuts off and the led is blinking.
I've tried numerous video settings but nothing worked so far. I doubt that it is heat because every other game runs just fine and the temp doesn't go over 50°. I did install 3 different and new driver (1 from ATI and 2 from Omega) but nothing worked (Yes I did deinstall them with driver cleaner).

Usually it happens after a race in the menu and sometime during a race, my comp doesn't really crash tho I can still here the sound and it reacts to my controller.

My system:

-9800pro
-3400 64 AMD
-1gb infeneon PC333
-Asus K8V mainboard

Software:

-Chankast 0.25
-WinXP
-Metropolis Street Racer (NTSC-U)


Would be great if you guys could help me out!

go to ATI Technologies Inc. and get the offical lastest drivers and go into your power setting and put monitor shut off to never

Thanks for your reply!

I think I fixed it now, well I could play over 30 minutes now so I think it's fixed.


What I did:

-run > dxdiag > more help > override > override value 85
-ran in it full screen
-turn off monitor > never


Gonna test some more later, but it runs fine now. Other then that the rims are "missing" (black) :matrix: but who cares about rims when you are driving?!


Btw, awesome community here!
