Didnt know where to post it, figured this would be the best place to post it.

Anywho, I have been having graphics problems where I could see thru buildings and only see half the heads of other characters. When this happens the graphics slow down considrerably.

I run a Geforce4 MX 420 w/ updated drives and directX.

Now I heard the main fix for this is turn off bit mapping....well it is off, hence the reason I ask heh.

Also I run the 1280x1024 / 1024x1024 when I have the problems.

Can only suggest the common sense thing really.

Turn everything OFF or to minimum on your graphics settings then add them back in one at a time. Start by upping the resolution of background, then foreground, then add the other effects afterwards.

It could be you are just asking too much of your graphics card (poor thing).

I lowerd em and instead of graphic problems it would lock up heh. And everything was off :(

...I did a system restore and its been running fine ever since w/ the 1280x1024 / 1024x1024 on. I still cant explain it.

OK, while were on this subject. I have been having issues running Play Online since the latest update. When I run my video card setting at 32Bit True Color, the POL screens are excessively laggy and are very pixelated... but when I lower the settings to 16Bit everything works and looks fine, save for the error message that tells me POL cannot run correctly under the current settings when I turn it on.

I think this could possibly be derrived from the latest update for my video card which I did at the same time but I am not sure.

I am using an ATI Radeon 9200se.

If anyone knows what could be wrong, please give me a heads up.
