Hello, I'm not aware if this post has already been posted somewhere else but I'm having strange texture problems in LFS and GTA IV (The only games I've thoroughly tested with the new card (ATI EAH4850)) basically what happens is that I get random 'triangle' like shapes coming off parts of the game, for example in GTA IV there's many of these shapes coming off a players body or a car body, in LFS this happens inside and out of a car, not always but on some occasions the same problem in GTA will occur in LFS, the image below shows the RAC with the problem I'm having along with the XFR.

I have updated the graphics card to the latest drivers and have been told that Catalyst version 8.12 will fix this, in a way it has fixed it but they are still reoccuring but very minor here and there.

If anyone has had this problem or knows a fix to it I'd be very thankful,
regards,
Daniel.

Had the same problem when i bought mine.

My mobo didn't have pci express 16x.

Bought new mobo and the problem is fixed.

My motherboard is PCI E 16x

Are you overclocking ?

No, running it straight out of the box with the latest drivers

I had exactly the same problem when i got my ATI HD3870. I had to update the bios on my ASRock 4CoreDual-SATA2 motherboard which fixed the problem.
