Particle Effects shown as big squares

I've looked everywhere on this forum and on the internet for a solution to this and have come up with nothing.

 

My problem is that some of the smoke and water textures, such as the smoke from huge fires, mist from waterfalls, and water splashes in streams appear as these ugly flat 2-D squares. Here's a few screenshots of what I mean:

Oddly enough, some of the other particle effects are working just fine, such as these torches here, as well as spells and dragon breath attacks:

I've tried adding mods that change the smoke and water effects, but they don't work. I've also tried re-installing the game as well as Archive Invalidation. No dice. Any ideas or suggestions?

 

My computer specs are thus:

 

Model: Toshiba Satellite P755

 

CPU: Intel® Core™ i3-2330M CPU @ 2.20GHz

 

RAM: 6.00 GB

 

System Type: 64-bit Operating System

Hey, I fixed it! Try going to the website for whatever company makes your graphics card and get the latest driver, or try rolling back your graphics card driver to an earlier version. Both worked for me (I rolled back at first but then upgraded to the latest one because a couple other games of mine weren't working).
