Hi there :) I have an Nvidia video card too and I think the issue you're having started happening to me after one of Nvidia's driver updates. On my XP PC, it plays fine is you select the "... TL HAL" device under settings > options. If all else fails, you can set device to "RGB emulation".

Thank you Verdite for the help, it wasn't a system compatibility issue.

HwitVlf, the settings you suggested in-game worked...wow that was easy, thank you for your speedy replies folks

Dave Bowman: HAL, I won't argue with you anymore! Open the doors!

HAL: Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.
