Hi all,

For the benefit of everyone I wanted to see if I could get a list of working video cards for Links 2003 and Windows 7.

If you have Links 2003 working with Windows 7 please provide the following:

- Video card
- Video memory
- Video card driver
- DirectX version
- Links 2003 version
- Links 2003 resolution and if you're playing in Windowed or Full Screen mode.

Thanks!

Mark

Hi Mark here are some pictures I took of system





I have directX 11 but in system picture from game it says directX 9
I think the driver is the one that installs with windows 7





My display is 1920x1200 in the game and I play full screen with 1.07 patch



I have no problem what so ever playing any course.

Hello Mark,

Here are the settings on my new HP laptop running Windows7 64 bit Home Premium.

- Video card Graphics Chipset
AMD M880G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200
- Video memory
Memory Size 1982 MB
- Video card driver
Driver Packaging Version 8.632-090702a-084376C-HP
Provider ATI Technologies Inc.
2D Driver Version 8.01.01.921
Direct3D Version 8.14.10.0678
OpenGL Version 6.14.10.8787
Catalyst™ Control Center Version 2009.0702.1239.20840
- DirectX version 9 as shown in Links. 11 as shown in directx tools
- Links 2003 version1.07
- Links 2003 resolution and if you're playing in Windowed or Full Screen mode.
Full Screen 1280x720 32bit because the 1280x768 doesn't show full screen.
Screen resolution is set to 1600x900

Just in case I got something wrong here are a few pictures.





Here are a few pictures of 3D anomolies that I found on Hazeltine which didn't exist on my old laptop that I used to design and play it before. It was using Windows XP SP3 and had an integrated graphics.





Hope this helps and thanks for all you do to keep this game going.
OBTW is it possible to a get the registry to allow 1600x900?

Windows 7 Home Premium (32-bit)

AGP Sapphire 3850
512MB GDDR3 Onboard Video Memory (1.25 GB System RAM)
Driver Catalyst 8.11 (using Vista drivers also listed as 8.552 in dxdiag)
DirectX 11 on system
Links 1.07
Resolution 1600x1200 in full-screen mode Thumb Up

No more issues than running under XP. The few crashes I do have all appear to be Green Analyzer related on specific courses.

Hi Mark,

ATI Radeon HD4670 (HIS) (added to videocard.txt)
1 Gig
Catalyst 8.11 (struggled to find any later driver that doesn't cause anomalies with AA enabled)
DirectX 11 on system
1.07 (patched straight to that after re-install)
1440 x 900, Full Screen

- Video card = ATI Radeon Sapphire HD5750
- Video memory = 1GB
- Video card driver = 8.681
- DirectX version = 11
- Links 2003 version = 1.07
- Links 2003 resolution = FS 1920*1080

This set up only gets a very occasional Links crash, say once every 10-15 games, when I had the Geforce GTS250 1GB installed it was crashing every 2-3 rounds, for now that card is sitting in the box gathering dust.

Cheers

Justin
