Civ IV Beyond the Sword Unit Texture Problems

Well i've bought Civ IV BTS. The orginal Civ IV was fully patched. When installed i updates BTS with the 302 patch but later ran into some Errors:

None of these units acted like this before. I also want to note that The Great General gets a gridline texture in he Civlopedia and the tank reflections spread onto its tracks. Here are my Computer Specs:

Anyone know whats wrong?

Given past experience with how bad the initial versions of Civ4 were, I say wait for them to come out with a patch. Are your graphic card drivers at the newest?

No they arn't but this never happened before. All units were fine before BTS.

My suggestion is to update the drivers first. Next, if that does not work, check out the Civ4 forums if there are any reports of this problem.

If all else fails, then it is likely the designers goofed again.

For starters, what is the brand and chip of your graphic card.

I'd suggest getting a new card altogether. I've got Civ4, Warlords and BtS and have not had this problem.
