That's what I get when I try to launch JKII SP/MP.

Anyone know how I can fix it?
I've checked the JKII Help file, but there is nothing in it that is of any help.
Though my Video Card and Chipset aren't in the list, I know my video card is good since I've played JKII SP and MP before on this computer.

Thanks for the help, but I've fixed the problem.

Only minor problem is that I cannot run it above 640 by 480 cause it crashes if I try.

My videocard is cool, since I run all my other games at 1024 by 780 without any problems.
And I used to run JKII and JK:JA at that resolution aswell.

Any ideas?

Yeah, this is a problem with your video card. Make sure all of your drivers are up to date, as well as DirectX. :)

Ok this looks like a bug with the video drivers to me...
Try installing the newest drivers for your vid card and in case you have the newest drivers, go back 1 or 2 versions...
Otherwise make sure your directX is allright...
start>run>dxdiag and perform the video tests
