I've recently been getting a graphics error when running games. The games start out fine but after about 5-10 minutes they freeze for about 10 seconds and then my graphics look like this. The game is still playable, though very annoying. I have to restart my machine to fix the problem. The problem occurs in Counter Strike: Source, Sims 2, and Delta Force BHD, but it may happen in other games too. No error message pops up.

Specs:
Athlon XP @ 2.1 Ghz
Geforce FX 5600 256MB
1200 MB DDR 2100
XP Pro w/ SP2
 
Make sure you have the latest version of Direct X for your computer. Go to Windows Update, On Internet Explorer goto Tools - Windows Update and pick the Direct X update.

Also, you need to download the latest video driver for your graphics card - go to the website for your graphics card manufacturer and download the latest driver for your card - if you need help finding this out let us know.

Please note - whenever you ask questions about graphics problems you should always post what kind of video card you have so we can do the research without having to ask.

    Guys just a heads up I am going to be shutting the site down soon. I am just waiting on the NUON people to decide whether they want to transfer forum data and keep the discord. My email is [email protected] for anyone that wants to keep in touch and I have a facebook too. I will make an official post later. Love you guys and will miss everyone!

    Oh no - please don't lose the Nuon content

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Someone email AtariAge and see if they want me to transfer the forum data over to it
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Could probably keep NUON stuff around here if we wanted.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm what to do about the World Editor site though?
  • Stephen Stephen:
    I'd rather personally just own a backup of the Nuon data than see it go to AtariAge honestly. If it gets enshittified as per usual, or if some of the "regular" Jaguar folks get there, it's not gonna be fun
  • The Helper The Helper:
    There will be a github of the forum data so the NUON Forum Data I guess would be available there
  • The Helper The Helper:
    World Editor is technically Ryoko stuff not mine you guys can keep that I am not in that even
  • jonas jonas:
    :( end of an era :(
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Dont think of it as an end jonas - think of it as a beginning, because really my friend that is what it is.
  • A Andyoyo:
    Thank you for the hard work over the years. It did not go unnoticed.
