anyone having a problem with their x800 pro's not running directx 8 games? i can run counterstrike: source all day, but the classic counterstrike crashes with direct 3d and openGL both. I play Empire Earth, and it crashes a lot too, but Halo runs strong. I figure it's a driver error, but I want to make sure by checking with other X800 owners...
 
what other drivers. i've tried the cats that shipped with my card, the 4.8's, and the 4.9's. I heard bad things about the omegas, but if you think i should try them
 
Last night I played 4 hours of EE, no problem except for the damn mouse cursor has a bluebox outline around it.

Try the newer 4.10's or the beta 8.07's. I high recommend the latter tho.

As for Omega's. They are great drivers, never a single complaint about them from me.
