Demo Tech probs

im not sure if this has been mentioned but there is something wrong with the letters in the game. first of all, would the game have worked without me installing DX9? secondly why are the letters all messed up? my fault?
anyone else getting this prob?
I can play the game but without the info, I won't get too far.

what happens as I play: stuttering here and there, although I exceed the minimum requirements, and the words are kind of pulled towards the topped and chopped.

It sounds an aweful lot like it could be a video driver issue to me. Be sure you are using the latest greatest version of dirvers for your particular video card manufacturer.

You might check to see whether you have antialiasing enabled. Antialiasing often corrupts text, especially in direct3d based games. Try going in and disabling all antialiasing for directx and you should be able to see if that's the issue.

how exactly should I do that? through my graphics card file (right clicking the desktop?)

display settings
settings tab
"advanced" button
At least that's where the antialiasing settings on geforce and radeon 9700 cards show up
