Computer Graphics problems on a notebook

I can run Dominions3 on my old Dell laptop with XP.
However, when I try to run the game on my newer one (ACER Extensa, Intel 965 chipset, with Vista) the graphics does not work as designed. Specifically the 3D animation.

At the start screen it flickers, the menu options remain visible when I select them and disappear only 1-2 seconds later. In-game, the GUI does not have background (leader icons, recruiting/army interfaces). Turning off the animated background helps - if i restart the game, everything looks fine, except the battle replays. Units starts to flicker, disappear and reappear.

Anyone has an idea what causes this?
