Help?

Hi guys.

Been a while since i posted on CFC...

Just wonderin if anyone can help me im a little confused - I reinstalled Pirates on my computer just now and found the graphics in game to be totally buggerred (it worked before I uninstalled it last year) and yet the FMVs run fine.

As demonstrated above thats how the menu screen appears - weird and blue.
The actual game graphics appear almost as one giant flurry of blinding colour.

No idea whats up.

Im running the 1.2 version of the game on Win XP SP 2 on a computer with a 2GHZ AMD processor, 512 mb of ram, an NVIDIA GeForce 6200 graphics card, and Direct X 9.0c.

All well above the specs.

So any clues?


EDIT:
It runs on my piddling wee laptop absolutely fine.
My laptop is a 1.4ghz intel processor, 512mb of ram, and ATI Radeon 200M series graphics card, also with Direct X 9.0c and XP SP2.

No one about that has any clue then?

Have you tried upgrading your video card drivers?

Yeh I indeed have updated my drivers.

Not sure why this is happening...Wish i hadnt reinstalled now.

Mine is the least costliest method. Un install and re install it again. If it worked the first and not the second, why should in not work in the third? Try it, it worked for me in both Civ IV and Pirates!
