Y'know, this is really beginning to piss me off. When it first came out, I downloaded the warez version of ST:Armada and thought it was a pretty decent game. So, I went out and bought it. Uninstalled the warez version, deleted all the directories/reg keys, and installed the real version, downloaded the patch, and tried to run it.

Now, all of a sudden, it won't make it into the game. It'll play the intro, but at the initial menu, it gets broken up into four quandrants with a black + breaking up the entire thing. Like a window frame. And the mouse disappears. I manage to find a way to get into the first missions, but then I get a BSOD in regards to my video drivers. But the warez version worked perfectly fine!!

I've tried unintalling it and running the warez version, but now that even won't work. And I don't want to run that one if I have the real version. (yeah, I know. I'm funny. I buy my software if I like it or use it a lot)
