Maybe your graphics card isnt good enough,or settings are to high????

Possibly a GL problem! try d/ling the latest drivers to see if it helps!

Close isn't good enough unless you throw a grenade!

BTW, you can D/L the latest GL update from here: http://www.glsetup.com/where.htm

Hope it helps!

Post the specs on your computer--otherwise we're all guessing.

what type of Radeon card?
7500 or 8500 or what?

While you're waiting for tech help, try this:

1. Try experimenting with some different video card driver version numbers. Sometimes the newest are not the best with EVERY system.

2. Do not install new drivers over old ones.
Delete the old then reboot and install new ones.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Here's some directions on remove/install drivers. Try and find a utility called: DETONATOR DESTROYER. Here's the readme frm that utility.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Right here is the procedure and usage of this (wonderful) tool.

* Uninstall the drivers from the Add/Remove Section of Control Panel
* Run this program
* Click on Uninstall
* Click on either Restart to restart windows or close to shut the program. You will need to restart shortly
* When the machine has restarted, Install the display adapter as "Standard VGA"
* Restart whern prompted
* Install the new display drivers
* Restart again
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Also, you might try deleting the entire demo then reinstall it.

1) name ffx86.dll (moh/main) to ffx86.bak
2) open internet site, click tools, internet options, connections, never dial a connection

I had similiar problems and #2 fixed it.
