Problem with VIA Chrome9 graphics card
Posted: 26.07.2007, 20:47
Hi everyone!
I just heard about Celestia today, and I'm curious to try it out. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's working on my laptop very well. I imagine my graphics card just might not be good enough, but I thought I'd post my problem here. I did a look around the FAQ and searched for my graphics card and didn't find anything, so hopefully I'm not going over old ground again.
Problem: Earth appears wrong, like lines have been cut into it from pole to pole: screenshot at http://senduit.com/5dc78b.
System: 1GB 1.5GHz VIA C7-M Processor, Windows XP SP2
Graphics: 64MB VIA Chrome9?„? HC IGP, Version: 1.4 20.00.01e (from Celestia's OpenGL Driver Info)
Program: Celestia v1.4.1
When I disabled hardware acceleration, Earth appeared normal, so it is something with my graphics card.
I appreciate any and all help. Thanks!
