Antialiasing Issues - NVidia GeForce Go5200

Postby Dukes » Fri May 12, 2006 10:48 pm

I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 notebook computer with an NVidia GeForce Go5200 GPU in it. I  had an issue where the hard drive died and forced me to re-format and reinstall everything Dell gave me. However, since this occured my computer has not antialiased anything, at all. Everything stands our pixelated so I was forced to conclude that the driver is having problems. I have tried looking on NVidia for new ones, but they haven't got them for my card anymore. I have also tried Dell and had the same results. Now I wonder if there are settings hidden somewhere that I have somehow missed. I was wondering if anyone who has an NVidia GPU might like to help me figure this out.

Thanks,
J. Dukes

Any of the Go series drivers should work for that card. If you dont have the correct drivers installed, its no wonder that the AA dosnt work.

According to Dell I have the proper ones... but I will go poke around NVidia and see... They seem to be on this single driver set for everything idea... dunno where I'll find the proper drivers...

I upgraded to NVidia's latest forceware update, but there have been no obvious improvements. I am forced to conclude that it is a setting issue. Does anyone know where NVidia settings on antialiasing are hid?

Right click on your desktop> properties> Settings> Advanced Settings. That should put you in the right place.
