Check driver. Go to Control panel.....Devices Display GPU (right click properties) and check the driver version. Then go to the NVIDIA site and check to see if their is a new driver, almost certainly is. Installing a GPU driver is straight forward, however do a Google on how to do it properly. Do that and report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewgum Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 NVIDIA Quadro FX 580 isn't a 'game' graphics card. Maybe you should invest in one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DimosZargarda Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I got the GeForce GT 330 and I have this problem too allthou its not as big as here, for me some items (mostly the werewolf) become purple as seen above after like 30 min. of game play, then some caves or trees follow, is rly annoying.
