Basically, I entered some server in Texas and I had a chance to fly the A10 on Basra without much lag (finally). As soon as I entered the plane, the inside of the plane just turned into a black silhouette and a few seconds later it transformed into some metallic reflective material as the skin. I thought this was somewhat abnormal but I kept flying for a while. After that, I noticed that in certain parts of the maps, the terrain just turned black. I had an issue like this on my old 9800pro where the plants and zoomed in ironsights were just replaced with a black blob. My 9800 died soon afterwards but my new card (x1600 pro) which I got just half a year ago seems to be showing the same symptoms.

A couple of notes that might be helpful. I had this issue with a color space appended to my desktop that would change everytime I ended battlefield 2. Downloading new drivers + CCC for the graphics card fixed this issue but I started getting BSODs every now and then. I kind of ignored them since they happened after I finished playing and tried to turn off the game.

Any help?

My solution is uninstall PR, reinstall PR and that's it fixed. I think it's just a corruption with the files, not your GPU as I've NEVER seen it on ANY other game. Trust me, there's nothing wrong with your mobo or other hardware; it's a software issue.
Hope this helps.


p.s. ATI Tray Tools (Get it here: http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=733) causes less problems than ATI tools (as far as my machine is concerned, I'm not entering into a war re ATITool v ATI Tray Tools).
Like ATITool, it gives you GPU & GPU environment temperature monitoring in your tray notification area & fan control but has a handy little bench comparison utility so you can see how your rig shapes up versus similar rigs.

could be the same type of bug perhaps
