annoing background issue (random color junk)

i bought sins last week and have poasted on a thread that was never actually fixed. my issue is that the background has random color junk rather then the little white dots we like to call stars. i have updated my video card drivers and that accomplished nothing, please help me figure out what's wrong i love games like sins but i cant play with random colors for a background.

Are you using bootcamp on a mac? IIRC those cases were resolved by using standard drivers, rather than the ones Apple provides.

i am useing a hp pavillion a1730n in which i installed my 512mb video card other than that everything in my computer is standard. there's nothing special about it, i wonder if possibly there is a dll file missing from my cd or something along those lines, i'll see if downloading the game will fix it.

No, you download the game through Stardock Central (or Impulse Beta). You can register your serial # through either of those programs and it has nothing to do with the site's registrations page :)
