In reply to my earlier thread about being unable to get past a blank screen after loading Halo and watching the Bungie, Gearbox, and MS intro movies, I've finally solved my problem...
After a hefty 40 gig backup, partitioning, moving the backup to the backup partition, reformatting slowly my NTFS windows installation, reinstalling windows and drivers, and then reinstalling halo to find it didn't work, I tried turning off AGP acceleration (i.e. agp 8x, to agp 1x, or Off as ati control panel puts it)... voila! It works! Halo works! Hallelujah!
Oh wait, now I can't play as fast as my super fast raddy 9600xt with 256 mb ram can play... I'll be in touch with Gearbox about this, and possibly ati too if I can find where to complain. Seriously, that's annoying after all I've done.
