Disappearing conning tower with Nvidia 178.24 driver

Castout · 11-30-08, 03:32 AM

Since installing the latest Nvidia driver 178.24 my VIIB conning tower actually disappears showing the two periscope masts inside. Perhaps this is what is called artifacting?

I know the easiest solution is to revert back to older driver but I'm curios to know whether anyone is experiencing this with Nvidia 178.24 driver as well. And if there's a solution to this.

It is working fine for me.

What card ?

I'm using a 7800GS and don't experience any problems.

8600GT.

It seems that the problem is mission specific.

Hi Castout

No probs here with a 8800GT and 178 driver, nor with the latest 180 driver. But that's in a GWX career in the Med - which mission(s) give you the problem?
