Anyone else getting z-buffer issues with this card? I had no problems with my GeForce 3, but since I got my new 9800 Pro, I see flashes of improperly sorted geometry whenever new models are loaded in SL (if I stand still until everything is downloaded, then move around, everything is fine).
I tried both the Catalyst 3.5 drivers and the older 3.2 drivers that the FAQ indicates are supposed to work fine. The symptoms sound like AGP issues to me, but I don't have any graphical problems at all in any other games, either D3D or OpenGL.
Again, I'm using the Catalyst 3.5 drivers, Directx 9.0a, and I have patched my AGP drivers as well. Other specs:

Thanks for the reply - I missed that post. That's unfortunate that the newest few driver versions haven't fixed the issue, I'll probably just live with it until the next Catalyst release. Doesn't seem to affect stability in the least.

Hi, I have catalyst 3.1 drivers and it works fair, I still have problems with lockup. And when my game locks up, only hard reboot gets me out  . Goodluck, Random
