URS VERSUS THE MYSTIC BLUE LAYER (PART I)
I wasn't able to reproduce those ATI-bound error-screens on my system (P4 1500MHz, 1024MB RAM, 6600GT). So I decided to borrow a Radeon 9200 128MB RAM from a friend. The game was well playable with this card (driver: 8.241.0.0), despite some flickering. And no blue layer!
If I started the game while booting before the ATI CATALYST Control Center was loaded in the system tray I could reproduce these layer-screens. As soon as the Control Center got loaded and the screen went black for a short moment, the games graphic got a blue layer. This didn't happen if the Windows-resolution was the same as the games resolution (1024*768, 32bit).
Because I could reproduce this error-layer only under such extreme conditions, I decided to eliminate at least the flickering. After killing this bug everything was looking the same as on my NVIDIA-card.
If I now started the game before the ATI CATALYST Control Center was loaded in the system tray the game didn't get a blue layer anymore after the Control Center got loaded and the screen went black for short moment.
So the blue layer might be eliminated. And if not, I would suggest to change the resolution to 1024*768 and 32 bit color depth before starting the game.
