ok so I did finally get my graphics card updated and i did also update my game to 1.95 but now when i play TA all the graphics are messed up (this only seems to happen when i am playing TA not Dread Lords). by this is mean that it is all fragmented and i can not see the turn or find button and there is a whight box that outlines alot of stuff, and i cannot see my ships. not quiet sure what to do now. i am going to attach the debug info but i dont think it will be very helpful because it hasn't crashed.
