Desync problem with new graphic card

Hello guys,

I seem to have a rather peculiar problem with my cnc3 game. Like the topic says, I'm experiencing desyncing problems. The gameplay is okay, I am refering to the in-game movies actually. The picture doesn't match with the sound. I did not use any trainer to play but the problem still exists. I was using an Nvidia GeForce 5500 FX graphic card and the desyncing problem didn't occur at all. When I switched to an Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT graphic card, that's when the problem occur. Strange because I thought the better the graphic card, the lesser such problems will occur...or so I thought. Have anyone experienced this problem before?

BTW, here's the lowdown on my machine...again;

Processor: Intel Pentium 4 2.40 Ghz
OS : Windows XP Professional Edition
RAM : 1.50 GB (1 GB Stick DDR 400 Mhz and 1 512 MB Stick DDR 400 Mhz)
Graphic : Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT (AGP Type)

IIRC, there have been more such problems with desyncing movies... Try to update all your drivers (both graphic card and sound card) and see if that helps anything Wink

Thanks for the tips Dutchygamer. That solved the problem. But now I have another weird problem. When playing the game, sometimes the color is distorted. I mean the menu with the difficulty and play game option has a weird purplish color. The gameplya itself is okay though... strange...

Uhmm...then I suggest re-installing the game Wink

Or check the C&C forums, maybe you find someone with the same error (if you can see trough the chaos #Tongue

)

the 9000 series is here, although I think it's just the low end ones (9600 and down).

Just [pretend you're watching a Godzilla movie with the desync problems Wink

the 9000 series is just the 8000 series having replaced the 8 with a 9.
still using the g92 core also found on the 8800GS, GT, and GTS512 models. and G80 is still more powerfull.
