Hi,

Just recently when trying to play a couple new demos I've experienced
a weird white-washed-out pastel type color problem. Both Myth II and
Theif did this. I'm using Voodoo2 SLI.

Other games still work fine (Quake II, NFS3).

I have the lastest drivers with DX6.1.

Any ideas? Thank you.

I think I have the same (only in 1024 x 768 res). Also using V2 SLI & DX
6.1.

Did you get any answer which can solve the problem ?

Thanks, Goswijn

I fixed it by setting the Gamma on the under the Voodoo2 settings in
Display Properties to "0" (all the way down). I rebooted, ran the
game (Thief), then set the Gamme to 1.5, rebooted, ran the game - and
it worked. I don't know why this worked, but it did. I found it by
searching for the problem on Deja News and this is what someone
posted. So I tried it and I'm glad I did.

Good luck.
