Hey guys, I know Crysis has been covered a lot here. I searched and could not find any answer for my problem. I am hoping someone here can help.
Here is my story, I will try to keep it short but I want to tell you everything I did.
I just built a new pc (in sig) about 3 weeks ago. I originally went with a different CPU and GPU. I started off with a AMD phenom 9600+, and a GeForce 9800GTX+. I was using Win XP with DX9. I had low frame rate and was not happy with some of my new parts, so I got my Phenom II 940 and ordered a copy of vista. I then decided to upgrade my GPU, so I got the GTX280. So with the rig in my sig and Win XP I was playing Crysis fine. 8XAA, 1920X1080 res and everything on high. I beat the game without any problems at all.
When Vista came in In I said great, now I would like to play it again with DX10. I got my new OS going fire up Crysis with the extra high settings for DX10 8XAA and 1920X1080 res, I load into the game. Wow was it messed up.
The only way I can try and explain it, is if you picture my TV cut into thirds, horizontally, and each third had its own refresh rate. If I did not move, it looked fine but every time I moved my guy, I would see my screen look like it was cut into thirds. I turned off AA and lowered everything. Everything at min specs and still did the same thing. I launched the game in DX9 and the problem was gone. I cranked the settings in DX9 and problem still gone. Only in DX10 do I have this and the game settings do not make it better or worse.
I have 2 other games right now that use DX10. Far Cry 2 and Hawx, and they both play perfect with settings maxed out and in DX10.
Another thing to note is during my initial format and install with vista, I had some trouble with my MoBo and Vid card drivers. I ended up having to format again. I also had a problem with reg cure and vista. Vista let it delete files it shouldn't have. I ran the scan and clean my registry then my PC would not turn on. I had to format again. So I have formatted my pc multiple times and this Crysis problem is still there. I have uninstalled the game and reinstalled the game maybe 6 times. This problem will happen all the time and does not matter what patch for the game I am running.
I hope someone will have an idea of what is going on. I know my PC can handle the game, but for some reason it does not like to run in DX10 with my rig.
Any ideas, suggestions?
Thanks.
