In game graphics problems.

So I bought Scarface for my laptop, and I went to system requirements.com and it said my PC should run it no problem was past the recommended settings as well as minimum. But once the game starts (which is meant to be in the house with people shooting at you) I can't see properly. Like the stairs, or where to aim or anything.

I'm not sure how I can fix it? So does anyone here know?

    try turning graphics down to minimum, including lower resolution.

    If still not working,check for updated graphics driver and any Scarface patch.

    If still not working, look to upgrade graphics card (no idea if this is doable on a laptop sorry)

    I had a similar issue on my PC. After digging around I found out alot of people were having similar problems if they have dual core and above processors on Windows 7.

    The solution was to disable one of the cores.

    msconfig>boot tab>advanced options>check box 'number of processors' and set to 1. Restart, wal-ah, Scarface works.

    It works but is a pita as you have to do that each gaming session unless you want to run in permanent single core mode.
