Corrupted Graphics

Whenever I look at the hive, in certain places pieces will be missing. This happens only with the HL engine. When playing CS, I also get invisible chickens on cs_italy, or just pieces of the head of the chicken missing. This happens with no other models that I have seen except the Hive and the chickens in CS.

I have updated my drivers for my video card and this issue still occurs, I run a Radeon 9800XT with the Catalyst 4.4 drivers. I have updated since version 3.x and this issue has always been present. Here is some images to show you what it looks like....

Anyone got any ideas whatsoever?

Have you tried bumping up your resolution? It looks awfully low judging by those pictures.

I took the pictures in 640x480 so that the size of the pictures wouldn't be so large.... but yeah 1280x1024 is the normal res that I play at....

What are your system's specs (such as graphics card, OS, Mobo, etc.)?

Mobo: Intel 875P

Graphics Card: ATI Radeon 9800XT 256 MB with Catalyst 4.4
1024 MB DDR SDRAM
Audigy 2
120gb HD with 8mb cache

Just a bunch of standard stuff, its a Dell XPS

I have had this same problem with both my Radeon 9800's (laptop and desktop). The OBS is the best, with this warpedbowl thingy. I use openGL, and you have to lower some settings to get it to work. I disabled triple buffering and z-buffer depth. I set AA and AF to application preference. I use detail textures (found here: <a href='http://hem.bredband.net/congal/temp/DetTex_pack.zip' target='_blank'>http://hem.bredband.net/congal/temp/DetTex_pack.zip</a>), and run at 1280x800 (widescreen laptop) and 1280x1024 (desktop) with no anomolies and great visuals!

My control panel doesn't have z-buffer depth or triple buffering. I can't even use the built-in overclocker... It's non-existant.

Edit: just checked it does, but they both were already off....
