Widescreen Gaming Forum

hi i know this is a little off topic for this forum but having some issues finding a possible solution so i wanted to check to see if anyone here has run across this or could maybe help.
I have a Nvidia GeForce 7200 128MB vid card in my HP Pavillion dv2000t laptop (widescreen) and having some issues playing the game at any in game resolution higher than 640x480x32. (i've read other forums where people with the 7300 card are experiencing similar issues)
If i have the resolution set any higher than that, the menu's show great but once i go into a game or mini camp,etc, the players show almost transparent and the background becomes distorted (almost like white shards of glass floating around). On another board someone posted that they resolved the issue by doing something to their video card configuration but would not post what they actually did!
has ANYONE else experienced this or have any idea for a possible solution? very annoying as i just got my laptop and it is playable at the lower res but annoying that i cant take better advantage of the graphics .
(oh ya also, when its set at any resolution, i've tried cranking up the video details all the way up and the game seems to run pretty smooth. this leads me to believe the card can handle the graphics fine but something is just off)
any help on this would be awesome! thank you in advance!
