My roommate has been have some really odd graphics issues.
First (and easiest to describe) the Mystic Fortune graphic that floats around a toon is just a colored square, no image like on my system.
Also, sometimes she will mouse over 'something' (the actual thing varies and she is never really sure what it is) and it will cause most walls and most intervening objects to disappear momentarily so you can see the bad guys waiting in the next room (kinda useful... lol, but mostly a royal pain).
There have been and still are other tiny little graphic detail differences between what she sees on her screen and what I see on mine but usually nothing serious. At first we thought it had something to do with her Trial Version but even after upgrading the problems still persisted.
Now we are in Striga Isle and on some of the Vampyr missions she is seeing pipes "moving". On my screen I see the pipes with blue lights inside them moving along the length of the pipe... she is seeing the blue light as stationary but the pipe graphic seems to be moving... kind of like a conveyor belt or escalator. Plus, when we get into the multi-leveled room with all the cisterns (water pools) her graphics freak out even worse and she gets serious graphics lag (choppy movement).
Any suggestions? Any ideas what these things are? Are they related? Any help would be great. She is really enjoying the game but these graphics issues are beginning to cause playability issues and making the game less enjoyable for her (and me).
Please help. Thank you greatly.

Well my guess is, she has a computer with a graphic card, that barely are able to handle the game.
I would suggest trying the technical forum, and be sure to include a COH Helper report.
