Phemo Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Had the same problem myself with my 7800 GTX. I tried a few driver revisions and compatibility options but nothing worked. I just stuck to playing it in XP. Would be interested to see if anyone has any suggestions but I think this is just a case of crap Vista drivers to be honest.

Steven P. Administrators Posted February 18, 2007 Administrators Share Posted February 18, 2007 Install the directx 9 runtime files for Vista and you should be ready to go. The runtime files should also be on the game DVD, if not go to Microsoft Downloads and search for Direct X 9 Runtime Vista has DX10 but not DX9 (sounds a little weird, but DX10 isn't backwards compatible with DX9 games).

Mr. Gibs Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Incorrect. Vista does have Dx9 but its an outdated version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conaire04 Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Anyone got a direct link for the Direct X 9 Runtime? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSan922 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 DirectX Download I'm using the latest Nvidia beta drivers (162.22) on Vista; however in the release notes the Scarface corruption problem is still listed under "Open Issues". It's only been about 7 months now. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzert Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I'm on board but can't seem to install a previous version of direct x. I'm stuck on 10 and when I try to install 9 from the link above it says it can't because there is a newer version already installed. My problem is exactly the same where none of the wall or characters are rendering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
