This happened on most occassions, perhaps on all, but this is so annoying that I immediately kill the game. It is rather puzzling, and Ubisoft still hasn't taken any trouble to answer my question. It is perhaps worth the gamble to buy a new videocard (120 euro costs for a 20 euro game, anyway it is probably worth it).
