texture rendering is controlled by your vid card. So did you updated your (vid) drivers?

Did you try to reinstall Sro after you updated your drivers? If not, try that.

Press the tab "Monitor". There you can see your chipset and your Graphic card.

Well prob you already installed the lastest driver:
http://majorgeeks.com/Intel_Chipset_Sof ... d1667.html

But 82865G Graphics Controller runs on DX6, Currently XP is on 9.0c and vista on DirectX 10.0. And a new driver wont be a bether driver then a old driver.

Im not sure if you got a AGP card now or a on-board vid card. There seems to be 2 versions. What do you have?
