Reinstalled CS - mental gfx glitch

Ello.

Blame Dolly and Throd I think but I reinstalled HL and CS last night after about a year off.

Anyway although I recently updated my nvidia drivers (got a ok ish ASUS Geforce 2 GTS) when I started CS up and jumped on a server I had some nifty gfx glitching. The game is playable (as in I can move around and see where the other team are etc) but the colours look like I'm on acid or something - lots of bright flashing, random colours, palette basically fubar.

Any ideas? When I say recently upgraded drivers btw I mean about 1-2 months back.

Cheers.

could be memory related Xtro.

What OS are you on. For the card you have, it might be worth going BACK a few releases of the driver.

I'm using WinXP m8. I'll try going back a few versions of the drivers then, any I should avoid or get in particular?

Cheers

My personal favourite was the 12.41 drivers - but that was for Winme.
