Ok heres the problem [and yes you can call me a n00b as I cant build computers, so go ahead XD]
okay I was bought Half-life 2 episode 1 for my birthday recently and my PC had all the requierments as far as I checked. so I installed the game and booted it up, I got so far and then well it just stayed on the background animation. a messege opend up an said that I needed to install the latest drivers for my Graphics card.
so I checked this up, it turned out that my graphics card was a ATI Radeon 9500. so I used the good ol' net to find the latest drivers for it by checking the ATI website. they told me to download the 9550 drivers and the catalyst control center so i did.
as the read_me file said I installed the new drivers and everything seemed fine. so I went back on HL2: ep.1, but when I played it this time it was smooth running except for one problem....
vertecies and polygons were stretching in and out all over the screen only for like single frames but it was annoying as hell and it still happens on all 3D stuff now I just wanna know how to fix this as I have some really good PC games that I cant play now cuz this stretching polygon problem is crashing my PC on anything 3D...please help me
