Hello folks. I am new to AO, but not at all new to MMO's. I have several questions to ask you guy's, but first i have an issue. When in the game, the text in every window, such as viewing an items stats the chat box, mission box, conversation box... Sometimes there is no text at all, some times i can only see just the top, or the bottom with the middle part missing. Blocked out or something. So i can't read anything. I am hoping since this thread is for newbs. This might have happened to some of you before. The comp is two months old, 4gigs ram duo processor, 256 ati card. So i know it is not the comp....

Please helps =P

If it doesnt fix the problem, could you perhaps take a screenshot so we can see what you mean?

You already checked for drivers then?

I get this occasionaly, including some seriously psychadelic skin effects, I find zoning usualy sorts it out.

Alternatively, try remaking your chat windows...
