Don\'t double-post please :) Just edit your last post to add new information if no one has replied yet - a little rule in the forums here. As for the graphics issue, make sure that you have both updated the game, and your graphics card drivers.

Right-click anywhere on your desktop, hit Properties, then the Settings tab, and tell us what it says under Display.

looks like a correct answer. but not a good one. it looks like you\'re running with the default windows drivers. head on over to NVIDIA (http://NVIDIA.com) and get the latest drivers.

All nvida drivers contain the files for all their cards in a series, so you just need to do this:

Below those links (The linux and the BETA) are boxes with three steps.

1) In the first box, select \'Graphic Drivers\'
2) In box two, select \'Geforce and TNT\'
3) In the last box, select your current version of windows (whether XP, 2000, or like me, old, old, 98:P)
4) Hit the Go! Button
5) Click on any of the downloads links
6) Before you can download, another window will pop up with a licensing agreement. Scroll down and accept.
7) After the download, open the exe and follow the instructions to install.

and if you look a little bit down from that you\'ll see
three boxes one of which says graphics drivers.

but they are there. unless you have some oddball settings in your browser.

arg. beaten to it again. a pox on... on... something poxable.
