Have you made sure your chipset and all your other drivers are up to date? How about Direct X? If that fails, if you revert back to catalyst 4.9 does it solve the problem?

Do you need the 1.4 patch? Reinstall w/o it if you don't need it. If you do, try the above suggestion.

I always thought it best to have the latest drivers , and with the game , sometimes you cant play against other people if you are arnt as up to date as them ???
ill try the 4.9 drivers , first , then a process of elimination.
just extremely long winded.
oh well.
cheers for the replies guys, it is appreciated
