Welcome to the boards, Clare! [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img] May you find life in the Gael Serran as pleasant as it finds you... [img]smile.gif[/img]

As Wyv and jsalsb mentioned, this is an older game. Some of the video settings can cause problems, and you may be relegated to software resolution and 800x600 mode. If it's blocky with D3D, you may try running at a lower resolution to see if that cures it. No promises or guarantees, though...

Sharing video memory with main memory is a BIOS settings option... you can see if this is set by hitting {del} or {F1} at the right time when you boot (the "press to enter settings" message pops up). If that's not familiar territory, then tread cautiously. You can't really muck things up in there without trying, but you may not have to try hard in some cases...

*edit* that was weird... folks, don't use the greater than/less than signs in your post. They can get converted into strange HTML tags when you're not looking... [img]smile.gif[/img]

Let's see if I can duplicate it and put it back... Yep!
