no background on loading screen

while not a game-shattering issue, this is one that has really sucked some of the enjoyment out of the game for me.
during any loading screen that has a picture and a quote, it shows both for a second maybe 2, and then goes black, after that the tiny progress bar at the bottom shows how much of the game has loaded, THIS DOES NOT STOP THE LOADING PROCESS, it still works fine, it just doesn't have the picture and quote.
one possible source of the problem, it started while i was playing TATW, but it is the same for the actual game, and a re-install did not fix it.

I appologise beforehand if this is an issue that has already occurred in another thread, a cursory glance over the forum didn't show it to me

Maybe your configuration got changed. Remove the medieval2.preference.cfg file from the main folder (keep a back up just in case) - then start the game again.

Is this happening with all TW mods?
Did you install the GEM mod?

[scorpiaq32]

deleting the file you suggested had no effect.
Yes, this problem goes for all mods of the game, kingdoms dlc, TATW, EB2 are the only ones i've used though
and I have not installed the GEM mod

Makes me wonder if it may have to do with video drivers seeing that it is a general problem.

I have this issue too I need a fix bc it's annoying -_-

Only suggestion I can think of is to update sound and graphic drivers.

Do you have graphic problem anywhere else in the game?
