My system is a Pentium 3 700mhz with 384 megs of ram, a voodoo5 5500 graphics card.. When I run C&C Renegade, you can see through the terrain. Looks like crap. Seems as though this graphic card is a piece of %&*#. Can anyone help me with this? This card never has impressed me. I saved for a year to finally get a decent card, and have been nothing but dissapointed with the choice that I made. I downloaded the newest drivers, and even tried some 3rd party drivers, and nothing seems to help... Please someone help me.

Hey, thats' a bug within the games. Even my old Voodoo3 and my new Radeon8500 cant run the game properly. One of my friend using gf2mx also got those annoying problem. Wait until Westwood release a patch to resolve those problem. I think the problem with most game developers are 'sell the game first, then we patch it later'.
