Followed FAQ Q6 instructions. Still have black/pink checkerboard.

I followed the FAQ Q6 instructions to make sure hardware DirectX is set to 9, but I am still getting a black/pink checkerboard pattern when under “waste water”. What else can be done to fix this problem? :expressionless:

Here’s the strange thing: I’ve tried “finding my way” under the water even though all I can see on the screen is the checkerboard. When Gordon finally runs out of oxygen and drowns then the checkerboard goes away and I can actually see under the water. Why can I see under the water after Gordon is dead, but not while he is swimming? Very strange.
