The issue is - one should not have to become compliant with software (or computers in general) being defective from the start and 'fix as you go'...

I go to buy a new house, and just before I move in I look around - two windows are missing - no plugs in the bedroom... oh thats ok they will 'fix it as they go'? So they put the plugs in my bedroom - but now the kitchen plugs aren't working? OOps they say - so they take out the bedrrom plugs and run an extension cord to my bedroom from the kitchen... but now this puts too much load on the kitchen plugs and the fuses break - so they decide..... blah blah blah.... (oh, and how about those windows that never got looked at in the first place???)

Don't even start me on the Space Shuttle or Mars Rovers... one tiny software mis-calcualtion there... the standards they set are WAY crazy and they still get it wrong (which unfortunately happens)...

We as a society have become too 'soft' in just accepting the fact that when you get computers and software - they will already have bugs before I even use it - when it should be 'don't even talk about it until its good'.

Not an agruement point in this case - its a general statement for all (I have no idea about WoW cause I've never played it...) I deal with 1000's of comps everyday myself - and it is strange that society has leaned this way when they wouldn't allow any other product be so poorly sold and accepted in general

Are you using an ATI Card?
Donno about others - But Yes I am - and No I am not LOL

My ATI card would NOT let me sail - at all... aftere up/down-grading drivers / reinstalling OS fresh, and trying other options - in th end I put an older card in to make it run (and sail).... BUT I will try these steps tonight when I get to the PC... maybe - it will finally see the power of my 512MB ATI Card (and not the junk card I have to use now) *crosses fingers*
