Default Graphic mess up

Hey, my guildwars and other games really look messed up (see link below)

http://picasaweb.google.nl/schaapieo/Guildwars

I know it is verry kinky :P but that is not how i want to play

I alreay reinstalled drivers and tried different versions but nothing helped. I am now reistalling windows and i hope it the problem is gone. Meanwhile i hope somebody can help me. Any tip that could fix this is welcome, i have some computer knowledge my self but not enough as you see.

I don't want to sound alarmist, but it seems like your video card might be gicing up on you. You should check for detached heatsinks, dust obstructed fans in your computer.

Also what are your system's specs?

This pc is 1 month old and that is why i hope nothing is broken. Well here are the specs

xfx 8800 gts
intel pentium 4 3.2 ghz
2 gig memory
windows xp
120 gig hdd

This is good enough to run gw . I hope the reinstall of xp does the job otherwise i am going to call the company were i bought it.

If you've ruled out drivers and Windows, then I'm afraid it may well be your videocard. It's probably got a bad memory module, overheating or other such problem. If it's only a month old then just take it back to where you got it from and get a replacement.

Tried reinstalling Guild Wars? Looks to me as if your textures have corrupted. Your character is correct, and the hench are correct, but other textures are all over the place.

I suggest reinstalling, and if you are still having the same problems, then start thinking about a new video card.
