Thank you so much. Sorry about the late reply but a short trip developed into family night out. I'll try reinstalling again. Maybe without adding the patch.

You're welcome prader. Glad I could help. I never experienced any problems myself, I just remembered reading that thread a while back.

It's not whether you win or lose that counts: it's how much pain you inflict along the way.

From a thread about the upcoming patch:

quote:
Version 1.42:
2. Added - Flag to use the old style of Log Political Message display. Some people experienced the problem that their screen would go crazy when a political message was displayed in the Log Window. Usually, changing the screen resolution, color depth, or installing new drivers would fix the problem. But in case they don't, we added this flag so that those players could change the setting "Use Old Log Political Message Display" in the Settings.txt file to TRUE. This will display communication message in the old manner with no possiblity of scrolling the message.

This may be your problem; so, when they release the next patch there'll be a workaround at least...
