I'm getting black lines tunning both Horizontally and vertically when i boot up Mercs.

Any Ideas?

using DX9b, Catalyst 3.7 with a Radeon 9000PRO 128. other Comp doesn't seem to do it and it's running a simialr rig.

I hate this, i just reinstalled mercs on this machine and i can't seem to get it working without the black lines. Also pplaying Red Faction i get a very fast flashing arounf the bottom and the right edges of the screen.

other comp has same drivers?

It is possible you have a bad place in your video cable, or something on the GFX card is going out like a capacitor or something.

Sounds really odd.

Swapped out my Herc Card for the Other one and the comp is still doing the same thing. I think it must be software setting.

I guess i'll just have to tinker until i find out what

odd, does it do it in all resolutions?

Have you tried reinstalling direct x?

Yup all resolutions.

Very strange, i've never had this before

Going to try a rollback to the V3.5 drivers then see what happens. Did a rollback to the 3.6's because they did work great when i used them pre-format. I hate niggling things like this

That's a strange one Beak. I'll have a think, but nothing immediately springs to mind.
