S.O.S.

I have a very interesting bug. I just installed SOA and right after the initial sequence, my screen "drags" down so that I can only see the bottom of the page. I have tried numerous things to undo this (clicking portraits, re-load from previous games and re-booting the computer) all to no avail. I have the latest XP patch installed, but it doesn't help. My specs are below.

Little help here please!!

Try installing the latest drivers for your graphics card, as it seems that's where the problem lies.
