Nowadays in Starfury my engine glows are just big glowing white orbs.

Like the image above shows. At first I thought it was because of the game and I reinstalled it. The problem didn't go away.
Then I thought that maybe it's my new ATI drivers. Sid Meyer's Pirates! did have some problems with them. So I uninstalled them and still the problem stayed. Then I removed all my display drivers and reinstalled them from the CD that came with that display adapter card. The game has worked fine with those drivers before. But now, no help.
After that I thought that since I didn't remove the Starfury folder last time I reinstalled it maybe there's something that doesn't get overwritten. So I removed Starfury again and then installed it...and no results. Same problem.
Have you ran into any graphical problems with the game? What display adapters do you have? I have Ati Radeon 9600. Any suggestions on what I should try next?
