I had DoW working just fine. Stupid me decides to re-install XP Pro just to clean up some other problems I was having. Ever since, I cannot get DoW graphics to work in anything but Safe Mode and even then, there is heavy flickering. I have 1) Flashed my BIOS to latest version, 2) Upgraded to latest DirectX, 3) upgraded to latest fw for both my video card (GE force IV) and audio but nothing has changed. What am I overlooking?
Here is my dxdiag output:
