Try a driver re-install test the drivers using other ganes and DXDiag. See if your isnatall is working ok.

@SuperFurryFurryThing

 i tried again the single chip mode and works, but when i move around the city i get low fps, lower then software mode....

i used the SFFT Alpha 27 when i got the half screen...

now with the sfft Alpha 28 it's ok, but i think that with only 32MB of memory the game don't run so fine, at least under WinXP..

 Anyone have any other trick???
