Graphics problem in Rome: Total War

Post by 000 »

Alright, so I installed R:TW after having it off my computer for awhile. When I try to play, everything works fine except the screen is shattered into a thousand little cubes in various psychedelic colors (mostly bright green, though).

I had this happen before on an old computer as the result of a graphics card exploding or something like that, but in this case the only thing affected is R:TW, so I think I'm okay on that count.

I updated DirectX and my drivers and all that jazz; only thing I can think is that it doesn't like Windows Media Player 11. Which I really don't want to re-install.

So: anyone experience similar problems or know what could be going on? Is it known to have computability issues with WMP 11?
