| Guest | graphics problem installed world of warcraft, installation went great. Started playing the game and about every 20 seconds or so the screen flashes black and lags up. then it comes back on. I minimized it and there was a error message saying the graphics driver failed but has succesfully restarted. The problem is it does this over and over again. It is a brand new toshiba laptop with 2g ram and 1.6 mhz proccessor. any idea what to do? |

| Guest | Re: graphics problem Graphics have been an issue with Vista, but it's a problem with the drivers from the manufacturer. ATI has been fairly good with theirs, however NVIDIA has a LOT of work to go to get a good, stable driver out. I guess it's a waiting game, at the moment. But, with all the pressure, it shouldn't be too long of a wait! Dustin Harper dharper@vistarip.com http://www.vistarip.com Rob wrote: > installed world of warcraft, installation went great.
