Guys,

I have had this problem for a year. Marshall see my various posts over time. Nothing fixes it. It only occurs after you load a Turkish Pbem turn. Restarting the game wont clear it you have to reboot...

Antivirus stuff running?
What resolution are you starting the game in?

A couple of things to try...

1. Make sure your monitor is set to 96dpi and 1024x768 then start game.

2. Try running the game directly from the EXE (goto the c:\Matrixgames\Empiresin Arms dir) then dbl-clk the EIA.EXE file to run it outside of the game play menu.

Let me know...

antivirus - Symantec Endpoint Protection, but tried to run the game with AV disabled also I've switched off non-crucial processes - no luck

tried 1&2 still no luck

also tried to set 128 MB graphics memory buffer in BIOS, but it didn't help either

maybe it is sign, that it is high time for hardware upgrade

I'm simply confused since the game really is not Graphic intensive at all??????
There may be an issue with that Intel card BUT I'm not sure???
I will look at my bundle of machines to see if I have a similar box!
