did you install them properly by first removing the old cats?

if that doesn't say 3.8, it didn't go in right.

might also want to hit Details and make sure all the driver versions are right.

so is anybody else having this issue ?
Ive tried about all i can think of , at this point it seems its a problem with the driver realease and i might go back to omegas 3.7's untill the 3.9's come out :\
:cry:

Notice the vpu recovery?

It'll reset the vpu if it gets locked from a graphics problem. Previously, the only way to fix a locked vpu was a reboot.

Sometimes it'll even be able to keep the game running too.

radeon 9700 pro. i'm on the 3.8s and tribes 1 runs fine. i even have fsaa enabled but that causes some annoying shit in the menu system. otherwise it's great.
