I bought a geforce 6600GT today, upgrading from my Geforce FX 5200. After installing it correctly i then opened up Need For Speed Underground 2, i noticed that the graphics has large cracks on the car and surroundings (black patches) even on the low settings of which my old Gfx coped with perfectly. I even opened up Farcry on very high and low settings and the same problem, however it works perfectly with Wolfenstein Enemy Territory. System AMD 2400+ 512mb DDR PC2700 A motherboard :P AGP 4x 80gb Hdd I know the card is AGP 8x but its also compatible with 4x as ive read from many places, oh and the latest driver's Thx for any replies :D

Hi quick question which latest drivers are you refering to? nvidia have recognised an issue with 6600 drivers and released (yet) another update. ver 66.93 has a load of fixes for farcry nfs2 works fine on mine. have you done a completely clean install from the 5200 upgrade?

Yes using the 66.93, I dont think ive done a clean install how would i go about doing this just removing the driver?

Hi Try the latest beta drivers at Guru3d.com or nVidia. I have a 6600 GT myself and its working great the newest drivers after 66.93 contain a fix for a major problem. CS Tip #1 - Don't try to shoot with a knife
