That's your VLAR killer at work Hank. It's part of the opt-app package. VLARs are rough on the GPU so Raistmer included an app to send them back to let someone else run them on their CPU.

Thanks I thought my Video Card was having problems as I had a lot of the same errors. It is a relief to know that it was working like it was supposed too.
