This sounds like a driver issue. If you post up your system specs it would help alot.


type and model for:
cpu
vid card
sound card
if a prebuilt the manufacture and model number would also do. You can always check the manufactures web site for driver updates. Also, what are the settings are you running guildwars at?

What resolution do you run your monitor at and what settings for graphics in game?

I have a feeling that your graphics card can not handle a high resolution and high/max settings for EotN.


Recommended System Specs:

* Windows XP/2000/Vista
* Intel Pentium 4 2.0 GHz or equivalent
* 1 GB RAM
* DVD-ROM Drive
* 4 GB Available HDD Space
* ATI Radeon 9600 or NVIDIA GeForce FX 5700 series video card or above
* 16-bit Sound Card
* Internet connection
* Keyboard and mouse
* DirectX 9

I would try turning my graphics/resolution down.

2 days, that seems a little off. I would reinstall the game. then run the -image switch over night. defrag. also what drivers are yiu using? if it is the 175 you may want to go back to the 169.
