What if boss' had a distenguishing mark by their name, Incase a video card does not support the glowing on a boss

Generally, a boss type mob has a unique name rather then a generic title.
Also, I don't really think it's possible for a video card to not be able to support the glow. It's just an extra layer of textures over the model. If the video card can't handle that, there's going to be much bigger problems then worrying about a glow effect.

Well, it happened.
And to others too, no matter what the graphics setting (low, high...)

I agree, if you can't see the glow, you need to upgrade your video card.. I"m shocked you can even play the game at all.. what card you running a Voodoo 3?

I run GW at medium graphics settings on an ATI Mobile Radeon 9000 (i.e. "Total Piece of Crap") and it looks great, glow effects and all.

The question therefore is simple: What card are you running?

And yet another to avoid the question, what graphics card DO you have?

a GF4MX is the equivilent of a geforce 2, it's not all that powerful a card, you're like 3 generations behind
