we need your system information before we can tell you what might be going on.
i hope that helps
k. Can you now do that with GPUZ?
There's a little camera in the upper right hand corner of GPUZ. Click it, and it will offer to host a snapshot on their free-hosting, and give you an image link that will work in this forum.
hopethat helps lol
Ive seen that before but usually on older games (pre-xp) installed on newer systems running vista or win 7..
Unfortunatly could be anything .. my guess is start with vid drivers. You give me the impression you have upgraded to win7, check for graphic driver updates dont use the ones from win update ..
If that doesnt work you can try right clicking the shortcut and use some options there .. like run in XX Mode ..
The latter doesnt normally help much but its worth a try untill your able to get more info to us . .
Edited .. ah i see u put control panel from catalyst .. u got ati card and theyre drivers hmmm

Go here

Try downloading the newest drivers for your card normally its a good place to start.
My Graphics Card is not on there so i dont know what to pick... i'm lost Mines a ATI Radeon HD 5450. and they dont have one for it.

Get the full software suite for Catalyst 10.4. It supports the 54xx series (I doubled checked just to make sure), it's simply that the web site lacks the appropriate links. |

Catalyst 10.4 download
Note that this link is for Win7 64-bit. If that's not right, back up to here and follow it down to the right version choosing your OS and "any" for the product. If you're unsure if it supports your card, check the "Release Notes" link. It lists the supported products (including the 5400 series) on page 3 of the PDF for the Win7 64-bit download.
