Hey,

Lately I have been getting a lot of graphical glitches in the game, like all the graphics going way and long red and purple and black and blue and whatever color lines and blocks being drawn all over the place (almost like an exploding object into every direction from certain objects, usually NPC characters in spike like shapes)

Also since I started getting that bug whenever I save a game now the game save screenshot (when you go to load game) is all hazed over in doted black and purple pixels...

This is most disturbing

Anyone have this too?

I am running XP 32bit
Nvidia 8800GT
Intel Quad Q9450
I have latest dx drivers and latest nvidia drivers
Also have the standard edition through steam

My issue began similarly. My graphics will start flickering rapidly across the whole screen and/or (depending on the time) the screen goes mostly black and I get slashy lines and blocks much like what NeonA described. Alt-tabbing away from and back to the game clears the issue temporarily. It happens most often during cutscenes or when entering/exiting a building. Some of my screenshots come out fine, but many are covered halfway with solid gray.

It recently crashed my video card entirely. The game went black, my display resolution reverted to 860x480 and I received a system error saying "The nv4_disp display driver has stopped working normally. Save your work and reboot the system to restore full display functionality." The entire system froze at that point, so I did a hard reboot.

I checked the temperature of the components, and all seems in order. As others have mentioned, the CPU usage of both cores is at 100%.

Is my system simply unable to handle this game?

WinXP 32 bit SP2
2.75GB RAM (of 4)
Nvidia GeForce8600, latest drivers, latest DirectX
Intel Core2 Duo
Dual monitor display

I upgraded to SP3 and installed DAO patch 1.1. I had the graphical flicker issue once after doing so, but after that I was able to play for about 2 hours and exit the game normally. Would still appreciate any thoughts on the matter.

well to me 'spikey lines' or triangles, everywhere indicates seomthing called 'artifacting' which is usually a heat related issue. most probably on the graphics card.

check your gpu temperatures whilst playing the game. several programs can log the gpu temperates in teh background whilst you play. as soon as it does it again you would alt-tab out and check the log to see what the temperature was at that point.

rivatuner can display a temp chart.
im certain there are others.

thats what i would check if the patch didnt rectify the issue.
