If I can load the key code screen without problems does that mean everything is set right for the above card? I do not want any surprises when it goes live, but since no servers are up I can not get past the scren for registering your key.

Thanks

SURPRISE THIS IS FOR YOU

I am using a NVidia GeForce FX video card and am having trouble seeing some terrain features.

There is a known issue with NVidia GeForce FX video cards (GPUs) and driver version 61.77 when the user has changed "Image Settings" to "High performance". Some of the problems include missing terrain. The solution is to change your video settings to "High quality". To do this, follow these instructions: On Windows XP:
Open Display Properties control panel
Click Settings tab
Click Advanced button
Click GeForce "Version" tab
Select Performance and Quality Settings in left window
In the Global Driver Settings window select Image Settings
Move the slider to the right to "High quality"

It's kind of silly not to have it at High Quality anyway. I have a 5900XT and at 1280x1024 3xAA, Guild Wars ran like a dream.

I have the GeForce MX 2, and I think some people have had terrain problems with this card also, so I will follow your instructions and hopefully it will work

i would think that your problem would more likely be caused by the insufficient memory and capability of this card. i would highly suggest that you get a new card, as no doubt others have already done.

someone has my same card and they just lowered the settings, besides, I am too cheap to buy another graphics card, I have investigated it, but I dont think I want to do that.
