Graphics Default to Non-Advanced Settings

[SmokinLoon]

For some reason my game starts up without the advanced settings.  I use advanced terrain, advanced water, bump map terrain, and buildings shadows. If I minimize or when I start up the game it wont have adv terrain or adv water checked, just the other 2.

I run Win XP, have a less than 12 months old Radeon HD 4600 vid card with over a gig of memory (I use 160 video memory or so in game).  I usually run 59-60 fps w or w/o the advanced setting on.

Did I accidentally change the settings in some for off corner of my pc or vid card??? Thanks for any help.

Problem solved.

I had to reboot my PC twice.  For some reason it must have reset it and things are like they were.  Odd these computers can be!!!

if you ever get low frame rates momentarily when AH starts it will turn off the advanced graphics.
