Problems With Opengl

Wheeee

<div class="IPBDescription">Crashes after exiting game</div> I'm using a p4 2.4, Sapphire (ATI) Radeon 9500 with the 9500->9700/9800 softmod, windows 2k sp 2, and DX 9.0a. I run NS in 1024x768 openGL, and whenever I get into a game and then subsequently try to exit to the join game GUI, the computer locks up. Anybody know what this is an issue with? I can exit the game fine by doing quit in the console, but pressing escape locks up the computer.

*edit* forgot to say, it works fine with Direct3D, but it gives crappy framerates so I don't use it *edit*

Are you using ATI Catalyst v3.2? The 3.2 drivers have a known issue with exiting from HL (or even ALT-TAB'ing out). Go back to the v3.1 Catalyst drivers and you should be fine.

Could an admin make a sticky post about the Catalyst v3.2 drivers so people know not to use them?

Jower
