I started Pontifex 10.19 on my notebook but the menu is not displayed. The game starts after pressing S but  the next screen is blank. Used several video settings with the Pontifex Hardware Configuration but nothing helped. ':('

The notebook is a Sony VAIO PCG-F807K with Windows 2000 Professional SP2 and DirectX 8.0a. The video card is an ATI Rage Mobility M1 (latest driver).

Any advise to solve this is welcome,
thanks
Eric

I witnessed this same thing tonight. I've posted a response in the ATI Mobility thread.

I have the exact same problem on a laptop with a S3 Savage/MX video adapter.

Sounds like its not displaying the fonts... I take it the 3D drivers and/or directx are up to date?

The DirectX is version 8.0a (reinstalled it to be sure) and OpenGL is the standard version of Windows 2000.

I have read more video problems on the forum related with ATI video chip sets. Perhaps something is wrong with the ATI drivers. Other DirectX games work fine on the VIAO.

I hope Chronic Logic will solve this ATI problem as soon as possible because a lot of notebooks use ATI chip sets.
