Played Halo for a while. Then the game froze and a commented that the game would start in some sort of safe mode. I have all sound but the graphics are just shades of gray and look like an inverted model. I've tried everything (also commandline issues) but i can't seem to get higher detaillevels or colours back.

Some one help!

specs please
also get the latest video drivers

Specs are
P4 2,6 Ghz
ATI raedon 9600TX driver 3.7
AC97 on board 5.1 soundcard (latest drivers)
512 Mb 333 memory

Problems occured when i had the old drivers for my ATI card. I've tried everything including installing pathes for Halo 1.2 new ATI drivers 3.7 but nothing seems to work.

Looks to me the game seems to force itself in a very low resolution mode. Little bit the same as a designers mode for CS1.5 models

I'm going to try to caputer an image tonight so i cab show you

its late, but I seem to recall with that card you had to turn off anti-aisling (sp?!?)

I'm gonna try this when i get home. Is it possible that the game screwed up my card when crashing??? since when first installing the game i had no problems.

Maybe, since it's a microsoft game, it installed something in the registry which keeps pushing a certain videosetting. All other games show no problems

A strange problem occured attempting to play Halo with my PC ...

Downloaded it, installed it, started it, and it claimed my PC was below the minimum specifications (which it's not), so I resumed play and a fatal error occured. This error was avoided after I updated my graphic drivers, but another error appeared, so I simply un-installed the game.

For everbody with the same problems as i had with the graphics

Thanks to the hind from 'Muchspl2' i changed the settings of my graphic card to NO anti-alaising. That did the trick. Halo got back it's original colours. Funny thing is when i changed the the settings back to using anti-alaising the game still performs well. Probably this is one of those glitches Microsoft is famous about.

Anyway changing Aliasing settings did the trick for me. I got me a blast last night killing convenants

and a very big thank you to 'Muchspl2'
