Hi the games working fine except for one little thing. I searched but I couldn't seem to find a solution. After a few minutes the trees and all the scenery just disappear, its kinda annoying. I am using Vista and Intel Mobile 945. Any ideas? Thanks.

chipset is not so relevant but it sounds like you have a laptop, is it?
what gfx card you have? is there any sign of overheating?

Laughing I don't think I have a GFX card. It is an HP laptop. When I go to graphic properties for my computer it take me to the mobile chipset properties. The game runs fine at lower resolutions speed wise but just the trees disappearing is kinda of annoying. Confused

without a proper 3D gfx card the dx is probaby emulated so it may be some software glitch, but it may also be a sign of overheat and if so you better stop playing or you risk some permanent damage.

in any case i doubt there is much you can do except drivers update. if you don't have RBR 1.02 patch installed you may try that too.

what the model is your laptop anyway?

Yea, I know that I have little choice without the graphics card. Shouldve got a desktop Sad Just seeing if anybody had got it to work with a similar setup. Thanks for the help.

yeah, end of story. thats why is a bad idea to advise people to buy laptops based only on the fact yours is working fine, for now atleast.

@riske86: the good news is you can set up a cheap desktop to run RBR, something around $400 or less, as you probably know this game really deserves it.

but the laptop in that thread had its own card with its own memory, big difference becouse you CAN play games on a laptop with a decent card. i can and many more can...
