S3's newest card is as powerful as a weeker card in the Geforce 8 series and has DX 10.1!!! lol now how is DX 10.1 old?
What? S3 is still business? *goes to check website* ... So they are
But... really, who actually knows/buys S3 still?
The S3 that the guy has , is a AGP V3.0 S3 , so its definitely CRAP !
(Is presume that the new Savage are Pci Express 16x 2.0 ^^ )
Plus I saw the word IGP listed somewhere in the thread. More than likely he's using an onboard s3 agp card which will absolutly crap out on Dolphin. You need to upgrade dude to at least a PCI-E card.
Also, on topic with the first post, posting a link to the nvidia website is by not means a "fix". You're just recommending people to upgrade their graphics drivers but there are new versions that come out all the time and not all of them work the same. So if I am a user and I follow your advice, when I get to the site I may have a different version than the one that worked for your system config and have completely different results.
I have a 9800 GT running on Windows 7 x32 and Opengl works very slowly for me where as d3d is much faster but doesn't look as good. So everyone is different based on their sysetm configs. Don't post a driver that worked for you as "fix".
