Post subject:  Vid card won't lock in something...

alright so over the past few weeks my vid card has been getting worse and worse.

whenever I either start CSS or first get into the server, about 90% of the time the game shuts down and gives me a "failure to lock buffer" or some directX9 error. about 30 seconds after I get a message that the HL2 engine has incountered an internal error and has to shut down...

I have an Nvidia GeForce Go 7600, its on my laptop and I can't find any updates online...

any ideas???

comp specs:
2 intel T2500 @ 2.00 GHz
1 GB ram
200GB hard drives

Yeah, but you can only download it if you have Vista.

Plus DX10 doesn't work with the 7600 (I think you need an 8 series or above to take advantage of DX10).

Well, unless you go here and get an unofficial version:

Other than that, yeah you do NEED Vista.

I had the same problems falcon I tried installing/ reinstalling the directX stuff but ultimately it ended up with me buying 2GBs of ram and a 8600 that fixed the problem. Try just getting more ram might fix the problem :( it's cheap too.

Update your video drivers,make sure theres not a bios update for your laptop,reinstall dx10,make sure your not trying a resolution that your lappy wont handle,shit in your hand and rub it in your hair,jump down turn around and pick a bail of cotton.


And yes Vista does suck,i have both and its not even close.Gaming on Vista is a total F*CK up.

Anyone hear that the latest figures from third-party sources involved something like 90% of all Vista errors were caused by faulty drivers (non-microsoft) and some 50% of those were nVidia based?
