I have the most unusual problem that i have ever face logging into wow.



Steps i have taken to solve this.
1) Reinstall wow on same hard disk on a different folder
2) Format windows and delete all existing wow folder and files and then reinstall wow on internal drive (C:\) (I did see the game starting video)
3) Updated Graphic card driver and updated directX to directX 9
4) Scan pc for virus and adware and keylogger.
5) Updated my motherboard drivers.
6) Posted on worldofwarcraft.com tech forum but i couldnt access any worldofwarcraft forums.

I'm using
1) Windows XP sp2
2) GeForce FX 5200

Problem occured overnight as i have left my pc running and when i got to to it that is the screen i have been given and it has been like that ever since.

It only happened to WoW? try to 3D benchmark your VGA to see if thats the problem.

Yeah in WOW. I cant login now.
Theres music but cant do anything

What software do you suggest to 3D benchmark it ?

Pinjam your friend's vid card and see how

I believe I also have somekind of similar graphic weirdos, but is in the game, not at the login page.

When I flying over the El-something forest outside Stormwind, I found all trees are bared with leaves! no leaves! All bald!

I guessed its due to me after tuning the monitor display frequency to higher (80 hz). Later I drop to 75. No more bald trees encountered.

Just guessing.

blizzard replied my mail with some useless junk.

It might be your video card hardware failure try swapping video card.

Ive had similar experiences before with the graphics...it happened when i patched in version 1.11.xx or something...cant remember exactly...then i search for the problem on their forums and there is a solution for it..what did u do to ur WoW before tht happened? u patch it or what?

i logout from my character and left it at scharacter selection page and slept.

did that before with no problems.

woke up to page from hell.

I've switch to an older graphic card and using the same 91.47 nvidia driver and it works.

The problem i found on the graphic card was that it is failing the dxdiag direct3d test 7.

The box doesnt spin. It just freezes there.

Now i've switch to my older one and it works i've sent nvidia an mail asking them to help me.

I wanted to hook up a 2nd moniter to the card i was using.
