I did get a very specific report - surprisingly! Here it is:

"Thank you for your recent bug report.

Pirates Online utilizes the latest 3-D features of current video cards. It's helpful to stay up to date with your video card's latest software drivers.

Have you recently applied the Windows Update "Intel Corporation - Video - Intel 82945G Express Chipset Family"? If so, please revert back to the one provided by Intel or an updated Intel manufactured version (Intel's Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Express Chipset Family), as there may be issues with the Intel driver provided by Windows. You will have to manually uninstall the Microsoft's updated version as opposed to installing the new driver over the old version. For assistance with this procedure, you may have to contact your computer or video card manufacturer.

Thanks again for your email and we look forward to seeing you soon in Pirates of the Caribbean online."

So I went back to Best Buy this morning to have them do the computer stuff - Lord knows I'd mess something up! Tried reverting back - same microsoft error message - then they manually uninstalled it and installed the newest version (only one update since my computer is pretty new) and still no luck - so hopefully they will send me some other suggestion to try although the geek squad seems to think it's on their end. At any rate, I did finally get a personal type response which I was very happy with (even though it didn't work)
