problems with 66.93 drivers

[old timer 0]

Just installed deluxe version -runs great with nvidia 53.03 drivers - installed latest 66.93 drivers (for the benefit of another game ) and now zero hour wont start - gives DirectX error.

Tried turning off FAA & AF - still no luck , asks if I'm using direct x 8.1 - using 9c.

Any ideas anyone?

 

Oh - Fx5900xt card. NOT o/c

Yeah I tried 67.02 too and same problem, bah!!! Let me know if you find a fix. I tried reinstalling, no joy!

 

DXdiag says all is fine too!

Fixed it! Under My Documents you will find a folder called "Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data" which contains the options.ini file, try editing the line that says:

 

Resolution = 1280 1024

 

so that the numbers are the same as your desktops resolution

 

OR if this fails or is too tedious

 

delete the OPTIONS.INI file a new one will be created when you restart Zero Hour. The same thing can be done with the Generals options.ini
