Lighting Problem

I have been struck with the infamous lighting problem (which can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTCIcHv0e...el&list=UL). Basically, if I stare at a light, it is fine, but when I move around, the light and shadows bounce around oddly.

My graphics card is a Radeon X600. The game runs smoothly, but this problem is really ruining the fun.

RE: Lighting Problem

I think I may be stupid, but how do I do that. I have catalyst installed, but do not know what to do with it. Tongue

I do have that installed. I don't know if I am supposed to use it somehow, but I did install it.

RE: Lighting Problem

At start search for dxdiag and run it. Go to Display and take a screenshot of it, I want to see it. Also, attach me again the HPL.log file after the problem occurs because the last one only shows you going to the main menu.

From looking at it, I can see that the error comes from it not having the particle source for lights, I assume?
