Water in the colors of the rainbow.

Before the update I had the newest graphics drivers and rippled water worked perfectly.

Then comes the update - and I still have the newest drivers of course - but rippled water just doesn't work.
Instead I get a plain color, which flickers into all sorts of colors when I move around or move the camera.

Purple, black, green, blue, yellow, orange, red... Yes, it's like a water dancefloor!

I don't understand it. I looked through all the settings at least 5 times to see what I may have missed. It's all good.
My card is ATi Radeon 9600XT with 128 mb memory.
I've talked to people with the same card, who also has the newest drivers, it works fine for them.

I just want my rippled water back. I realize this may seem like a luxery problem, but anyway...

Anyone have the same problem?

Anyone know what the problem may be?

Anyone else having this prob? I've heard of avatars being in rainbowey colors (go to PREFERENCES > GRAPHICS DETAIL > uncheck AVATAR VERTEX PROGRAM) but this is the first time I've heard of ripple water having such an odd effect.

Please post screenshots, Bella?
