Hey guys, I bought NS2 a long time ago and I played it once and had to stop because my system couldn't run it. Recently my friend told me it has been optimised, it would run on my system and I should try it again. Excited about being able to play I updated the game and ran it and I got a weird graphical glitch on the menu (see below). After scouring the forums I decided I just needed a fresh install. So I deleted my local content on steam and redownloaded it only to find it was not the cure I was hoping for. I reinstalled Dxdiag and physx, I updated my graphics drivers, I tried everything and I can't work it out. Maybe you guys will have more luck.

It never ran well before, but I could at least see it.
