Jimmy,

I have tried all you have suggested with no change
in the distorted display (ea. water scenes have "paint
runs"). Land scenes are normal.
Is there any tried and proved video card for this game?

Thanks,
Mutt

What drivers are you running on that graphics card? Have you downloaded and
install the latest drivers from ATI? Which version of DirectX are you
running? You can determine whether there are graphics card problems by
going to Start/Run and typing in "dxdiag" without the quotes in the run
line, then clicking on the OK button.
