In carbon, when i turn the shader detail to high the road dissappears and i can only see the reflections
my video card supports shader model 3, it is geforce 6600 256mb
does anyone know how to fix this problem or why it is happening?

Make sure your graphics card supports Shader Model 3.0 and you have all your drivers updated.

how do i go about doing this?

Look up the technical specs on the manufacturer's website and while you're there, download and install the latest driver software for your card.

I have a GeForce 6150 LE
but its not listed!?

Video drivers are pretty much one-size-fits-all these days, they call it unified driver architecture or something like that. For your 6150 I expect you need to choose Graphics Driver > GeForce and TNT2 > Windows XP (presuming you're on XP).

Damn, i think its just the download for the whole driver, so that means thats updated?

Post by **GT3x24x7** » 17 Dec 2006, 07:47

Once it's downloaded, then you need to install it by double clicking the downloaded file.

i downloaded the latest driver but when i install it says
"nvidia setup cannot locate drivers for your current hardware"
when i tried to install the drivers on the cd that came with the card i got the same message!!!!

Do you have an nVidia video card?

Errm... GT he said that in the first post.

Anyway, uninstall your previous drivers THEN upgrade them

Looks like your card isn't being recognized...

Post by **GT3x24x7** » 23 Dec 2006, 16:10

Oh, I er.. I knew that.

I have the same card as you. That's just your card isn't good enough.

Unless I need to update as well....

prince1142003 · Post by **prince1142003** » 28 Dec 2006, 02:34

That's odd, since the card supports SM3. Or is the LE version so scaled back that it doesn't support jack?

Toshiro · Post by **Toshiro** » 28 Dec 2006, 02:39

Whoops wrong guy. Use avatars!

Lol, I don't have the same card (6600 256mb here), but my game goes slow when I turn shading detail above high.

For upgrade of nVidia drivers you MUST follow this proces.

1. Uninstall previous driver
2. Restart PC
3. When your PC after restart ask for video driver install generic driver that is contained in Windows
4. Restart PC
5. DISABLE ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
6. Install new driver by using it's own installer

That seems extremley dangerous, disabling Antivir software would get your computer bugged within 5-15 seconds

Those steps are superfluous and not required. You can just as easily cancel the Windows New Hardware Found Wizard and install the driver. Antivirus software will not interfere with driver installation unless it's a very crappy antivirus solution.

Did you ever read instructions given by nVidia for inastalling new drivers? And why would your PC be compromized when you disable antivirus if you are offline?
