Right, there you go now to the problem at hand, iam experiencing problems with pixelation on the HUD, 
I only noticed it a while ago, and have tried reinstalling but to no avail, some components on it are fine, but it's not really a major problem i just wonder if you know of fixes?
Thanks

Could this be because you have low graphics on? Methinks it is.

Its prob because of your low screen resolution.

It really doesn't seem that low :/ I get this too, but I'm running DX8 and FPS scripts up the ass, so it doesn't really bother me.

Still, tell us your res. It doesn't seem any lower than normal thou...

LOL.

Well it really depends on if it's that big of a deal to you. If you're suffering from FPS lag without DX8.1 on then I'd say don't bother. If it's really important that you have extremely detailed HUD pieces then you could make it dxlevel 9.0, but that'll probably drop your FPS a pretty bit. Still, up to you.

EDIT: Yeah, looking at that pic I should have realized it was 8.1. I've just been playing too long with it to realize :/
