Need some tech help...

I will give it a shot...

Your icon is one of the skeletons from the B52 Bomber sequence in Heavy Metal, yes?

Aaaaand...did you see Southpark's spoof on Heavy Metal? It was fantastic!

Good eye! Yeh, I saw that the other night, it was hilarious..

I'm beginning to think there is another program running in the background, bit-torrent or even some spyware or malware. Something is causing you to loose a lot of packets.

Your network card wouldn't happen to be a broadcom would it?

This is my PC

My virus scans and spyware scans show up zilch.
I do not have broadcom.
My System usage is 1% before I log into the game.
My internet provider showed me that I have no significant packet loss.
Other games ie. WoW, and The Witcher run very well. I quit WoW though, but it ran great, and obviously there is a heavy load of active graphics in that game during 25 man raids and such.
All I do is log off and back in and UT is fine. I did lower my display settings, but high or low the bug is the same.
I am guessing it is a very subtle issue with my Nvidia 7600 and my PC specs...though my PC is pretty good, and has tons of memory to run the game....my old HP, which was a dog ran the game without a hitch, other than some lag.
I get no lag at all in game...just the visual issue.
It's frustrating, and hopefully I figure it out by the time I can push for high scores.

Sorry for not posting sooner........ clear your cache.

When cache gets large weird things happen.

clear your cache.

ooo good one ratar cache extractor forgot about UT2004 cache

You got skillz brother, forgot all about that one too....

Maybe I am missing something here but why would I have to clear the cache if I just installed the game?
How will this help?

Even when you unistall a program it will leave behind files that were created after the fact. The OS will only unistall what came off the disk.

Got it, but unfortunately I did download a cache manager and such, emptied the cache, and I still have the graphics glitch.
I appreciate the help tho.
If I don't log in and out at least by wave 11...I will have invisible monsters by wave 15.
And I don't think it's a heat issue or why would it all reset just from a quick relog?
So odd.

have you tried using older drivers for your Vid card. I know that worked for some games in the past for me.

Older drivers may help if you are using the latest and (in this case) not so greatest. Reason being: new drivers are "compatible" with older gen cards, but aren't "optimized" for them. I too have an AGP 7600 GT. I use Forceware 93.71 and it helped some irratic issues I was experiancing with the latest drivers. Give that a try. Just remember to remove the old (new) drivers first prior to installing the new (old) ones.

You can get them in the driver archives on Nvidias website.

I'll concur that it sounds like a driver issue. Go back to a version that you know was stable if you have that information. It could be a video setting but it likely would have to do with memory.

You are not running anything weird like a RAM disk program, correct?

Great suggestion about the drivers. I did notice that the newer drivers made WoW look better but caused more clipping overall. Makes you wonder what Nvidia is optimizing the new driver "for".
I removed the latest driver and installed the forceware 93.71....we shall see.

No luck, the 93.71 driver was the same if not worse.
I went back to the newest update.
I appreciate all the help, and hopefully I can discover what the issue is at some point.
