Question Dialog box Overdraw Problem

The best way i can describe it is when a dialog box come up (any dialog box it seems) the text will show up but when you scroll down the old text stays there and the new text overlap it and then it stays there. The problem isnt just text thoe but list, dropdown list, sliders, ect. has any one else had these problems?
i have a

Dell Dimension DIME521
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual
Core Processor 3800+
1.00 GHz, 960 MB of Ram
Physical Address Extension
NVIDIA GeForce 6150LE
all newest Directx and NVidia driver

(I know its not the best computer but it seems to run on lowest graphic settings)

To clarify, you only have these issues in Vanguard, right? Have you applied any .ini tweaks?

I'm not sure it'll help much on your integrated chip, but for fun, you might try an Omega Driver. His nVidia drivers are old, but you're unlikely to have a problem.

If that fixes it, then maybe we can find a better option for you.

It can't hurt anything to try the Omega driver, though. What's the worst thing that can happen? Graphical glitches?

Can you post a screenshot? You can host the image in our Gallery then link it here. I'll do some more research to see what I can find.

And does typing /flush fix the issue, even if briefly?

It seems that you're not the only one with a 6150le that's experiencing tearing, but I haven't found a solution to fix it yet (well, one that doesn't involve upgrading the video card).

I haven't given up looking yet, but it appears that your computer does have a PCI-ex16 slot inside it. You could put in an inexpensive card and it'd make a world of difference.
