Ugh, couldn\'t you think of a better name than one of a 08/15 CS player? ;)

However... just post the images on a free server and link them. That\'s better than sending them to people via mail. Have you run the updater to see if it fixes it?

>> nVidia GeForce 400MX 64mb

Which drivers do you have installed for your graphics card? I had similar problems (...ehh not that extreme :-) ), but for me the problem was fixed after installation the newest nVidia detonator drivers.

Actual version is: 66.94 dated 16.dec.2004

You can download them from the nVidia-homepage: http://www.nvidia.com

Try that, the new drivers solved a lot of the graphic glitches for me.

well, when i download ? install any nvidia driver, then restart, it sets to 800x600 pixels and 16 colours! so I am TOTALLY stuck =P

I have a driver from a cd installed called

ELSA Gladiac or something like that

You are right... after installing a new nVidia driver the resolution is always set to 800x600, 16bit.
I am not sure why, this looks like a bug in the nVidia drivers or they reset the configuration to this value because 800x600 works on any card to be sure to not use invalid configurations.

But you can simply change the resolution back to 1024x768,32 bit or whatever you want. (right-click on desktop...)

Even if you have an ELSA Gladiac card you can use the drivers from nVidia - they are valid for all graphic cards with nVidia Geforce chipssets. You can also check the website of ELSA to get new drivers for your card.

Without newest graphic drivers you have no chance to get any newer 3D games to run, this also includes \"Planeshift\".

Typically the original drivers on CDs shipped with graphic cards are not really up-to-date.
