Video Compatibility auto checking

[KorrupT MerC]

Question for a nuisance.

Just to let you know, my computer wont run soldat when video compatibility is on in the configuration, im not sure why either but im not worried. If video compatibility is checked to be on, i will go into the lobby (everythings fine), load up servers (still good), then i try to get into a game and it closes out my soldat.

Now that shouldnt be a problem just turn off video comp. right? Well it doesn't seem to be working like that, this usually revolves around Toumaz's Counter-strike server, although it has done it when i've tried visiting other servers as well, it seems just at any random time when im trying to get into a server, the configuration will somehow change and will turn on video compatibility. It does it quite frequently but there is no pattern. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and what i should do? I've already tried re-installing it... which didnt help, then i did a clean-install which didnt help... so im guessing its something to do with my computer? maybe my video card? (Prosavage)

Video compatability is automatically turned on because soldat detects that the features used when it is off are unavailable.

It is closing because of your settings also causing an issue; you may need to change from 32 bit color to 16 bit color or vice-versa, run in full screen mode instead of windowed mode or vice-versa, or change your desktop color from 32 to 16 bit or vice-versa.

Ok, i dont believe it has anything to do with those as i've been trying everything you suggested...

This is exactly what happens, usually consisting around TW & CS maps, when it requests to download either a texture or a texture edge, it just closes out. Now why wouldnt i be able to download a texture or texture edge? I also download the CS map pack so i should have everything for the map, including texture and texture edges, but some work and a lot dont... whats up?!

Also before my computer crashed, i used to be able to play TW & CS maps with no problem, i recently fixed my computer about a week or 2 ago. Why is it so different now?
