Hey,
first of all: I know there was already a thread about a similar problem (http://forums.introversion.co.uk/uplink ... hp?t=36652), so please don't shout at me. I've already tried what was suggested there, but it didn't work. Also, I've a bit different problem.
When I log onto a server, the menu buttons appear, but they lack the text next to them. Although that isn't too much of a problem - I quickly learned which button is where (file server: 1st button, log deletion: 4th button, then 1st...) but extremly annoying.
The strange thing is, though: If I have my memory banks opened or the FileCopier/Deleter/Log Deleter running and sticking to my cursor, the problem doesn't occur.
My computer specs:
CPU: AMD Athlon 3400+
RAM: 512 MB DDR-RAM
Graphics: SiS M760
Highly likely to be a graphics card problem, as the other guy had it, too.

I would say that you are already lucky it's working at all in opengl hardware acceleration (the driver provided with your video card).
Try putting this opengl32.dll file in your Uplink directory, you will get software rendering at the price of much slower frame rate and higher CPU usage.
P.S. Next time you have a graphics glitch, provide a screenshot.

Hi,
I've got the same problem when I try to "regiter"!
I did exactly what frenchfrog suggested, but I still can't see any text.

I bought this game through Steam.
Any suggestions???
EDIT:
Nevermind.. I found the solution in another thread.
It was because of Windowblinds! It's working fine now.

Replacing the opengl32.dll is a good fix, as I was having multiple issues using the same graphics core as the original poster - it's good that there was such a simple fix as I was getting worried that I'd have to downgrade back to 1.3...
In terms of frame rate to be perfectly honest I've not really seen any difference - it's just that the CPU usage is higher than it previously was - as you said.
Cheers!
