Having problems with blured building and agents icons!

Is it just me or is everyone having these problems regardless the resolution you use?

What do you mean? Blurred pictures or UI? Pixilated UI building/unit cards? Do you have a screenshot? Depending on what it looks like, it could be intentional, a game engine thing, or an actual bug.

In the campaign mode, I'm experiencing highly "pixeled" building icons. I think that this is what Hister means.
It's not than irritating though. Nothing can spoil the fun in my EB 1.0 Makedonian campaign!

The pixization of the building cards is a result of how the RTW engine deals with resolution. If your resolution is not 1024x768 (the resolution RTW was designed for) the UI cards will appear pixilated.

I always play on a different resolution and just deal with the pixilation in exchange for mor detail on the strat map.

Okey, thanx for answers!
I have a 19 inch monitor and whichever resolution I use (also 1024x768) there is the image problem. The pixelation accours when in custome battle menu - all units that you can choose for battle are pixelated/blurred. In campaign all icons for the buildings that can be found in UI and the ones that you still can build appear to have this problem. But when I want to build units their icons appear perfectly well. It's strange. Spies and diplomats have their icons pixelated to.
I'm sorry that I can't show you the pics for now- it would make things easier but I think you get my point right

Okey, my full PC specification:

Hard disc Seagate 320GB, 7200rpm, 16MB, NCQ, SATAII,
Motherboard Asus M2N32-SLI Deluxe/Wireless Edition, AM2,
Processor AMD Athlon 64 5600+ X2 Dual-Core, AM2,
Ram Patriot DDR2 2 x 1GB 800MHz DL PC2-6400,
Power LC6550 550W 24 pin,
GeForce 8800 GTS, 320MB, PCI-e
Monitor LCD 19" Samsung SyncMaster 931C

Anyone having similar problems? The other thing is also that the overall visual quaility and performance is not what I suspected to be having from this hardware (in other PC games to). Yeah, I played around with nvidia control panel specifications but noone gives me proper results. At best I can set graphical quality to slightly higher then medium (in games like Arma, Oblivion, Medieval 2 TW). Something wrong with my PC?

Yep, it's a problem with some monitors. I don't play vanilla or anything else, but I had EB installed on another computer last year and it had that problem always, no matter how much I updated the video card drivers. It's just strat map generals/spies/diplomats/assassins and banners as far as I can tell.
