    Sounds like an issue with your graphics card. Do you have the latest drivers installed?

    You have to keep in mind that some hardware may not be.... well, compatible might be the right word. As an example, I had a VIA Unichrome graphics card before I got a new GeForce. Some of my games would not show animations properly, apparently because VIA isn´t supported by many games. In Cenega´s UFO: AFTERMATH I couldn´t see certain things on the worldmap and some textures on tactical missions were blurred or missing. I mailed Cenega tech-support and they told me that they had never even heard of the name VIA Unichrome.
    My point is that it doesn´t always help to update your graphics card´s drivers. But it helped when I replaced it alltogether. If you have the possibility to fiddle around with some other graphics cards, try it and see if it helps.
