i just got a new video card and the drivers are up to date. It is a NVIDIA GeForce 7900GS I am also running the business version of vista that i got from my msdn license. I finally got it to work, but not the way i want it . If i put it into windowed mode i can get the minimap to work correctly, but it seems that in full screen when the screen size is in 1600x1200 the minimap just... sucks. :/
