Background Bug
 
I decided to bring up a second monitor from my other PC to truly appreciate MA3. But after plugging it in, I noticed I'm having huge background distortions.

I tried screenshoting it, but it didn't work; So you'll have to settle for a video.

P4 3.0C Processor

Forceware 182.06

Looks like the old GeForce 6600 bug again. I think that new drivers fixed this, but I'll have to go back through the old posts to find out.

182.06 are new drivers... but they released 182.08 2 days ago. Might be worth trying out.

Well the interesting thing Jim, is that it doesn't happen on a Single Screen Display. It only happens when using dual display.

That's what always happened with that particuler bug. I haven't had a chance to go through the posts yet, but I remember that switching that monitor from 32 to 16-bit usually cured it.

Yup! Same bug. Confirmed that it fixed itself after moving to 16bit.

Just an update. Driver update did not help.
