I don't have words for it.... Literally!

I installed the game and fought for awhile to get my firewall workaround. Success! But when I launched the game, I had rectangles where words (thats words like there is a placeholder and the words haven't been added on) belonged, and I don't know the words that go there, or why they don't appear! My graphics are up to date, and I'm using e-GeForce 6200 (256m vram)

Whoa. That's really bizarre. Can you post a screenshot?

Update your drivers and check your temps, also update your DirectX. MS just released DirectX redist Feb2010... If that fails, delete then reinstall the game.

This is a longshot, but I wonder if it is some kind of font issue.

Sounds like missing font data. What's your native Windows language? Do you use any other languages besides English on your PC? You may want to try reinstalling the game. I still recommend posting a screenshot if you can.

wow, i thought the guy with a 7600 was bad, a e-GeForce 6200? congrats, you have the oldest card on the steam forums at 5 years old. agp ftw!

spend fifty bucks and get past the saddam huessein era. i guess you'd probably need a new board too. oh well.

same problem.....no words

I have had this game for a couple years and finally got around to trying to play it. my computer specs are:

AMD 2400+ 2.00GHz
1GB RAM
Win XP SP3
GeForce 6200 512MB
all drivers updated.

I know I am lacking in the minimum requirements for this game, but they should be ok for choppy game play. The game loads up fine but I get no words at all. I will try to post a couple screen shots. I can navigate through the game menus by guessing wich button does what but can't figure how to get into it to play. OK no screen shot. I have some but can't figure how to post them. any help will be appreciated.
