Update your graphics card? Works fine for me, Windows 7, 8800 GT.

Uhm, the GTX 260 is a pretty decent card... Try upgrading the drivers instead.

Whoops, yeah, that's what I meant, update your graphics card drivers. I know the GTX 260 is better than the 8800 GT.

driver update was the first thing i did.
i put my 9800gt back in & it had the same issue(with its latest drivers too)

i guess i will try the forcewear driver :-S

update---
for future reference, the forceware drivers are needed.

You notice any other issues with win 7? I am curious about the sound, and what it reports.

Can you run the game with --crash, and post the dump file here?
and it ends here.
