Re: Unable to play w/ wierd red screen :(

Maybe your drivers are not installing correctly.  Try doing a CLEAN install by completely uninstalling your driver, rebooting, then re-installing the latest driver after the reboot.  After you re-install, reboot again, and try playing.  See if this helps.  Sometimes when you simply update drivers, things don't install properly, and cause issues.  A clean install will fix these issues most of the time.
