Hello,
I've already posted this on the Help list but I wanted to tap into the brain power on the General for more help/ideas.
System:
P3-500
256MB
Riva TNT - 16MB RAM, Detonator Drivers 21.83
DirectX 8
Win98SE
Install went fine (excepting the registration wants a great deal of information).
Issue 1:
There is something funky with the text being displayed both on the main menu screen and in the game screen. The best way I could describe it is that multiple lines of text are being displayed on the same line, making quite a jumble. The main menu I don't care so much about, however this problem carrys over into the actual game. to where I cannot read the lower right information which tells me about the unit, it's location, what year it is, etc.
Issue 2:
Preferences menu is screwed up a bit where the selection items are out of alignment with their corresponding check boxes - this isn't just aesthetic, it's to the point to where I cannot tell for certain what I'm checking off.
Issue 3:
In the tutorial game, I have the sneaking suspicion that my Domestic Advisor is trying to tell me things however the text is not coming across and I just see a blank window. I see her face and her text box but it's empty. After toying around with the units for a few years, she pops up again - again blank.
I haven't gone very far through the tutorial/manual yet however I checked the readme and there wasn't a fix for this. As I can tell, there are no patches available right now either. I have another graphics card that I will try to plunk in the box to see if that makes a difference.
Any ideas welcome.

? Something like panic-stricken would be fine.
