Dialog box becomes a vertical post rather than a box. The dialog post runs through the entire screen.
See attached picture

Running game on Windows 7 professional
Intel xeon 3.07 ghz
Nvidia quadro 600 graphics.

The Steam version does not have this problem that I've noticed as of yet. Yeah, I bought both because old school likes having the dvd in hand...

xeon and quadro, you're really lucky it even runs tbh....

Though not created for gaming purposes, its performance is exceptionally good and enough for even the most demanding applications, but the card isn't a standard card, so that depends on drivers and their support, which tbh may be an issue with some applications, this i'm afraid just maybe one of them..

why it would work on steam and not the site version is again a question for someone else, i tested the game and tbh test a lot, but nobody supports either of above at all, as nobody has them to start with, both are too high end server based equipment to be of mainstream use to be included in really any tests from any company

Could you please generate a DxDiag report file?

How to get a Directx Dialog file:

1. click on "START" (on Windows 8 Press "Windows Key" + "R" and go to step 3)
2. click "run"
3. type in "dxdiag" and click "OK"
4. check through the tabs and perform all tests
5. click "Save all Information..." and save the text file to a location of your choice
6. open the text file, copy the contents, and post along with your issue.

You need to install patch 1.01 where it was fixed. Steam version installs it automatically, but standalone installation does not. Try update function in game's menu.
