Black Characters with Quadro NVS130M...

[nafeasonto]

I am using Forceware drivers version 101 and getting black character models and sprites ONLY in D3D mode. Is there any fix for this?

Try playing FF7 in Windows Vista...

I'll assume that's not a suggestion...

you could try downgrading the drivers I'm using forceware 77.77, this solved my problems. I can aslo use 8-bit textures and AA. Also so far no  problems in new games.

Yes, it is.
I have GeForce 8800 GTS and the problem only occurs in XP (i have both OS).
Thats the only solution that I know for the problem...

Well a simple update your drivers would of worked, i am using very old drivers i didn't realize there were updaed drivers on the site, the Nvidia site is very confusing to download drivers.  It doesn't show any quadro drivers UNDER QUADRO section, only under the archived secion which makes no sense

Updatin the drivers didn't work.  Does anyone have any other suggetions because there has to be a fix for this.  It only happens on my laptop computer with the Nvidia card, not on my desktop one work perfectly, but the one on the laptop doesn't is there a setting in Riva Tuner that would make it wor?
