    Sorry to get another one of these threads going, but I'm not finding my specific issue anywhere. I don't even really know how to google it.

    I've downloaded the official patch, the unofficial patch, and I'm running it in compatibility mode, but when I launch my game the opening logos, cinematics and animations are jittery and leave behind square artifacts when they change. When I get to the menu, this happens:

    I can click things, but I have to wipe away artifacts from the last screen. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I had that same problem and it was caused by morphological filtering. I turned that off from catalyst control center and everything is fine. Not sure how you do it on nvidia or if the issue even exists on nvidia cards.

    Sentences like this are really entertaining when you are as technologically illiterate as me.

    I recommend reversing the polarity.
