Help!

I've upgraded my drivers to Forceware 61.77 (FX6500XT)
Since my AV is gone
I have a bar 'loading clothing' that never seems to load (new)
All trees are flattened (Z) while X,Y seeme to be 10 times as big (I'm walking to overstretched tree textures everywhere.)

I have reinstalled 1.4.9. (clean)
Rolled back my gfx drivers to 61.72
Reinstalled chipset drivers

To no avail...

SL isn't playable for me anymore this way. Am I the only one with these problems? Does anyone have a solution?

Hah!

Fixed it. I changed regional options from Dutch to a customized English (US) setting. (Forceware drivers install a dutch version otherwise, which is completely incomprehensible). This results in all the effects I mentioned before.

So a tip: Don't customize regional options in windows, as this apparently can ruin some things in SL.
(I suspect some decimal point / comma config read/writes going wrong then)
