Ok, I updated my drvers for my video card on my laptop, did a "sfc /scannow" not to long ago. And when I run OP I get this:

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do next?

The screenshot is when I reinstalled OP. It is unpatched.

Just guessing here...

I have discovered that the sprites are causing this. Mostly the background sprites. help

By any chance, is your laptop running nVidia graphics?

IAF Lyrkiller · « **Reply #6 on:** June 01, 2007, 10:12:37 am »

Nope, ATI. And I have never had this happen before.

Nope, my laptop resolution is higher. I will post another pic in in a different angle.

Here is the other angles as promised. It will give you an idea of what is going on.

That happens all the time on my laptop.

Do you by chance have shared video memory? I found that that was what was causing the problems on my laptop, so i just wrote off ever playing OP on my Laptop.

IAF Lyrkiller · « **Reply #11 on:** June 01, 2007, 10:56:04 am »

This is a 16meg video card. dedicated memory.

If all else fails, I can still play on my desktop syst, although I will NOT have TS available.

IAF Lyrkiller · « **Reply #13 on:** June 01, 2007, 06:37:19 pm »

I have some good news, I got TS to work on my desktop system. Now I can play.

there is a Primary Harware setting and a Software setting for video , try alternating between them and see what you get. Also you can try to set the compatability mode for the SFC program in case its something there.....

Let me know if I can help you......
