A screenshot would be helpful

Are you using anti-aliasing? You could also try to open CivilizationIV.ini and changing GUIManagedTextures=0 to 1

I've not done anything to the systems set ups and the game ran fine on tuesday. I can rule out Virus and spyware both scans came back clean. I will take a look at the graphics settings today and reinstall drivers for them both but as I said both setups are the same as before and the lines have come from nowhere.

It certainly looks like you're using anti-aliasing. Open your Catalyst control panel (right-click on desktop > properties > settings > advanced) and turn it off

Fixed it, My anti-aliasing has always been on but 2 other options have been changed, Adaptive anti-aliasing was turned off and alternate pixel center was turned on, switching them back has fixed the problem. thanks for your help buddy
