GalCiv2 Version 1.50.128 : Everything spins way too fast

July 6, 2007 9:36 AM from

I just bought Gal Civ2 yesterday and installed Stardock, and via Stardock the latest patch

My Problem already starts at the Race Selection screen.
The ship which is shown in the lower right corner rotates at a very high speed.
Later in the game itself, the whole starmap starts to spin like crazy (and as a result I cant't play), but only after I tried to scroll around with the mouse.

My System:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual
3800+
1 GB RAM

Graphic Card:
ATI Radeon X1950 GT
Driver Packaging Version 8.33-061220m-040998C-ATI
CATALYST® Version 07.1
Provider ATI Technologies Inc.
Direct3D Version 6.14.10.0464
OpenGL Version 6.14.10.6287
CATALYST® Control Center Version 1.2.2545.38916
AIW/VIVO WDM Driver Version 6.14.10.6238
AIW/VIVO WDM SP Driver Version 6.14.10.6238

Planets and ships spinning out of control is most generally due to the use of an Athlon 64 x2 CPU without updated CPU drivers. If this the case with your machine, download and install the AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor Driver for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 Version (x86 and x64 exe) file found at the bottom of this page.
