I currently have a computer with the following set up:

AMD ATHLON 1800+
ASUS A7V333 Motherboard
512MB PC2700 SDRAM
ASUS GeForce3 V8200 T2
Soundblaster Live

I am having problems when running games. The gameplay is good and fast but sometimes I get these darn lines on my screen, when they appear on the screen, they flicker and move as I move the mouse and they usually are anchored on an enemy. It comes and goes and is very annoying. The lines can be thin or thick or even whole objects can become obscure. I have no idea what this is. Please help! I have a screenshot of it so if you have any idea please leave your e-mail.

Thank you,

Gordon

Try toggling anti-aliasing on/off that might work. Send me the screenshot TWBRBDPG@AOL.com. You also might need DirectX 9.0b that helps.

Hi. Do you overclock your Geforce by any chance? If you do, lower the Memory/Core clock and see if that helps.

Don't bother installing Dx9...if you do you're going to have a lot of game problems and lag. Geforce 3 only supports Dx8.1 & below.
