ATI 4890 blocky-no textures in Vista 64

Recommended Posts

In Vista x64 I'm getting these type of blocky / textureless displays (like this post --> http://forums.bistudio.com/showpost.php?p=1332077&postcount=20).

However, dualbooting into WinXP all works fine :confused:!

Machine: AMD phenom X4 (Quad core), 8Gb

OS: Vista home premium x64

Gfx card: XFX Radeon 4890

I'm playing the Steam version. None of my other ganes have this problem.

any tips appreciated!

add -winxp to your shortcut:

-rightclick on the shortcut (snelkoppeling)

-add -winxp to the end of the target (doel) so it looks like "c:\arma2\arma2.exe" -winxp (or where ever you installed it)

It has to do with Arma2 not detecting your 8GB properly.. It will probably be fixed next patch which is coming soon.

I had the same issue after installing 2 GTX275 cards (upgrade from 8800s). When I removed 2 sticks of Ram and played with 4gig the textures loaded properly.
