It's a video problem.  When was the last time you updated your drivers?  And you are positive you have DX9 installed?

Same problem here.  DirectX9.0b (4.09.0000.0902), Radeon7200 (4.14.0001.9122), Win98R2.  I updated a couple of months back, max, to the newest drivers I could find.

Wildcrd, try renaming your settings folder and then run it.  Also, you are still able to run AH1?

When you reinstalled drivers, did you remove the old drivers first?

Anybody else using a FX5200 with Beta 19?
