Love what you've been doing... much respect.

System: Self build: Athlon 2800+, ASRock mobo via k800???

Demo and patch version (i.e. RC1 Patch v.1.0.1): Rc1, patch 2

Operating system: XP, DX 9 nov 2007 update
RAM: 1g 2700
Video Card Manufacturer (i.e. NVidia or ATI): ATI
Video Card Model: Originally: Radeon 7000 series AGP (works fine), NEW =  HD 2600XT AGP (has issue)

Location: All, from start.
Chapter:
Isle:
Scene:
Cursor used (if applicable):
Action performed (if applicable):

Result (pick one):
- Mistake [text, visual or audio error] - Old card displayed fine. However new card shows angled "spikes" of pure black across the screen, or "piles" of black. They often look like beams, or outlines of piles of rubble that have fallen from the ceiling (without detail) or triangles that have been spiked through the screen. They happen in the same positions, on a per-screen basis (ie. upstairs back hall is always down the hall and on the right. Second hall is always on the left in mid-ground).

Effects visual only, does not impact movement or interaction.

Could be young drivers, but it doesn't happen with any other game I have. Can email screen shots if you like.

Try upgrading your ATI drivers to the latest version.

You can attach screenshots here as well, as long as you save them as JPG and resize them so that they're less than 100kb.
