[bf1942] sortof OT: Grey rectangle in client

[Lee Latham]

mmmm, I don't think that's it...not "graphics corruption" in the normal 
sense, but more like an erroneous general instruction kinda deal...

i will try the new drivers, of course, but i've just been hesitant after 
spending several weeks spending over 3 grand optimizing my system....for 
Battlefield 1942.  I'd just gotten everything nice and stable before the DC 
.6 upgrade.

I hope you people at DICE are happy.  I'm broke now because of you.
