World of Warcraft Trial Graphic Glitch Problem

[SilentDragon]

Hi i recently downloaded a trial version of WoW....

I didn't encounter any problems installing it on another computer.

But on this particular computer I am greeted with a graphical glitch problem....(which I attached)....

I restarted, reinstalled, updated, everything, and even tried changing the screen size nothing has worked yet....

The weird part is that I have installed WoW once before on this computer, and it worked back then.... but now I don't know what is going on....

I appreciate any help given....

bump*
I haven't been on for a while, but again any help would be appreciated... I haven't activated my account yet, so we are in good standing...... Just to break down the problem....
-Graphic Glitch (which is attached on the first post)
-Opening Movie does not work....

Oh and just to clarify more it is no longer the trial version, I bought the Original and the Expansion from my friend.... I wanted to try the trial to see if it worked... but obviously not..... I works well on my other computer though.... but I prefer to play it on this computer....

What drivers are you running? I would change over to the 84.21 drivers if you don't have them.

[SilentDragon]

84.21 drivers? I do not really know what that is... (cause the display drivers usually update themselves) but maybe a link to download the drivers will help or some other medium.....

my video card is a
NVIDIA GeForce4 MX Integrated GPU | NetMeeting driver | RDPDD Chained DD
Screen Resolution: 1360 X 768 - 32 bit

sry for the lack of understanding....but thanks a lot for the help and suggestion...

Go into the nVidia Control Center, and find out the Forceware version It is the very first section on the list at the left.

[Matt.M]

Your GeForce 4 MX video card does not support WoW's pixelshaders.

• Open the World of Warcraft folder on your hard drive. (Default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft)
• Open the *** folder.
• Open the Config.*** file using a text editor, like Notepad.
• Change SET specular "1" to SET specular "0"
• Change SET pixelShaders "1" to SET pixelShaders "0"
• Save the file and start the game again.

You may DL the 84.21 drivers for XP here: http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/winxp_2k_84.21_uk.html

Thanks for the assitance again, both TheMatt and Matt.M,

Unfortunately I don't know how to go into the Nvidia Control Center.....(might want to walk me through it)...sry

Also in the *** files I do not see pixelshaders or specular.....

I went ahead to install 84.21 drivers but they did not show any improvement......

But again thanks for the help and sorry for any inconvenience....
