Whenever I go into my inventory and I'm in a category that has any items in it, or if I'm looting a corpse or a chest that has items, the entire screen goes gray except for the inventory slots, and the bottom-most item in the category. So I can't see any of the other items or my surroundings. I'm running win2k and have a Radeon 7500 and Athlon 1.33ghz. Any ideas?

I think some other people have had problems with Radeon cards, search the forums, you'll find several topics on it.

Yeah, I looked through the entire forum as thoroughly as I could and while I did see a number of people having issues with Radeons, none matched my problem. Everything in the game works flawlessly except for this one problem. A few other people mentioned having similar issues, but none with the same video card (some were even using Geforces I think). I am using the latest official ATI drivers for this card under win2k and Gothic 108k. Its frustrating having the game work so flawlessly except for this one small thing that completely cripples my ability to play

I have a radeon 64DDR (is that a 7200 or a 7500?) Radeon rules!.... except when a game wants fog. You see the same greyish color in the distance, depending on your visible range settings in the game. Someone in another topic said that we have to disable W-buffer support in the d3d tab of the ATi settings to fix the inventory. He mentioned another nasty problem that will appear, but was kind enough NOT to mention what kind of problem. Well I'm gonna find out now!
