    Now- I am no idiot when it comes to computers but this problem has me baffled. When i play BF2 on any settings i get these blocky shading type things under evrything. They are perfect squars that follow a vehicle or something or a building or a rock depending on your position. And it annoys me. Any solvency?
    BTW: I play at all high sets most of the time with AA 2x (no lag! woot!) but i have tried med and low to see if the sets are the issue. Compy as described in sig

    It seems like a bug or something. I have two advices:

    - Install a patch of BF2, if that doesnt work reinstall BF2 completely.
    - Install the latest nVidia drivers, that should help too.

    Hope this helps,

    Charlie-Peru :)

    I'd recommend updating the game as well. There was a big update out for BF2 a while ago, you should install that if you haven't already.

    Given your problem, it is a graphical issue .. a driver update may fix it. Go to www.laptopvideo2go.com and get theirs. The ones listed at the top of the driver page are the newest.
