I have been playing since 25 mins have the closed FilePlanet beta was released. Last night when I started T:V all of my graphic went south. I even have a CMY rainbow at the bottom of my screen. All the text appears to have been blurred. I have uninstalled the game and reinstalled it with no changes. No other games are affected this way. I ran a 3dmark test and there was no change on my score (5965). Here is a sample from the menu of the problem.

System Specs: And yes the graphics driver is not up to date but I reformated and upgraded my Hard drives this weekend and saw no graphic problems until Thursday night. I will update the drives soon if there is a change I will post again.

Update the ATI drivers? The older drivers you're using may not be fully compatible with DirecX 9.0c games. :shrug:

Problem Solved!

Two things first of course the drivers and second some how my AGP size in the bios was dropped to 8megs. Future note never work on your machine after a shazbotty week at work. :withstupi
