Hello
I recently reinstalled my machine. I have a Dell XPS 600. I played Pirates very happilly on it before with no issues at all.
After my reinstall with latest drivers etc. Pirates have problems with the 1152x864 resolution mode. When I select it the game slows down and the videos refuse to play. The sound is also intermittant. It starts as soon as the game starts up the even the intro videos don't play and the screen is black and sound stutters. When I keep [ressing escape I can get to the menu which displays normal but then again when I choose a game no video is showing and sound is off or stutters again. Works fine in all oither resolutions.
When I go down to 1024x768 all is well. I cannot understand it as it used to work before.
Anybody else had something similar happen?
Please help as 1024x768 is simply to fuzzy for my liking as I have a Viewsonic VX724 LCD.
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
Gian
