i tried to change the screen resolution and the color quality and didn't work. this didn't happen before. i have updated my graphics card and my anti-virus (AVG 7.5 to 8.0) and maybe one of these updates is causing the problem because this happened too when i run one of my game recorder program.
I think what's happening here is that your display driver can't switch to 320 x 240 (or is it 200?), and thus you get the crud at the top of the screen. My current comp does the same thing in direct draw mode... The reason the menus still work is because the game is set at 640x480 for those, then switches (or in this case, TRIES to switch) to 320 from the loading screen onward.
