Campaign Problem

[BlueBerryShadow]

Okay so with the grand campaign I am having some problems. The campaign map is really laggy, though the battles are fine. With the highest graphics the map lags the same, as on the highest graphics. When I play an expansion instead of the actual game, it runs just fine, the map, the battles, and all on the highest graphical settings. I purchased this game from Steam, and am not sure if the patches will work on the Steam game. The current version of my game is 1.03, and when I try to upgrade the current version, or downgrade, it says I currently have no version. Can anyone please help me?


((Sorry for spelling, kind of in a hurry.))

The campaign map will lag over things like the Alps or the Black Forest. Their pretty dense it takes a lot of video power to redraw them as you move across the map. 1.03 is the last version of Medieval2. The next step would be Kingdoms. This game engine wasn't built to take advantage of today's processors and video cards. I hope Empires will make use these advances.
