Default Guild Wars blacks out during some places

My Guild Wars screen just completely blacks out in some places, such as Fort Aspenwood and Kinya Province.

Here's a screenshot:



I have the most updated drivers for my graphics card, this never used to happen on Vista o.O

Help?

Are you playing with texmod on? Just a question since I saw your party window... If you are, it's a texmod glitch. Minimize and Maximize to fix it. If you aren't using texmod I have NO idea what is causing that. BUT, try to minimize and maximize by using alt tabbing. Also, try to make the game a window then back to fullscreen by hitting Alt+Enter.

As it only happens in Fort Aspenwood, I suspect a mangled .dat.

It doesn't only happen in FA, it happens in random maps. Sometimes Alliance Battles too.

Also, this happens with or without texmod. Minimizing + Maximizing does nothing, neither does full screen/window.

Maybe move the dat, screens and templates out, reinstall the game client then replace the dat with the new one? Could be a screwed up exe also...
