Thread: Really wierd problem..

  1. #1

    Really wierd problem..

    So, I installed the Original, Warlords and Beyond the Sword and patched them.

    When I was gonna play I saw that the opening cutscene looked "wierd".

    When I reached the Main menu the menu was flashing/disapearing..

    I've never had problems with this game before.. Can I have some help.. Please?

    - Type the word "dxdiag" (without the ") into the text box and press OK.

    Maybe it's because this computer uses that worthless SiS Mirage 3 Graphics..?

    Correct. Updating the software for it would be a kind of 'grasping at straws' attempt but it is the features of this card, or lack of, that is causing the display problem.

    You can probably get a really cheap upgrade to something like a 6 or a 7 series NVIDIA that would eat this game up... although if you are wanting to play more up-to-date games you would be looking at a new processor too.
