After i minimalize my game (atl-tab) and back to it, my map looks like on the picture below. Tried on various maps. I have the lates version of spring and i run the game maximalized and "Fix rendering on alt-tab" checked on. I just getting know the game but i like it very much. Any help/tips would be appriciated.

I had a very same problem some time ago, but it somehow dissapeared after couple updates.
I think this wont help you much though :)
Have you tried different graphic drivers?

I have updated my drivers to the latest and now its even worse. Even without minimalizing my map is black now with red-green-blue horizontal strings. I can only view map right from very close distance. My graphic card is GeForce FX 5200 (very very old computer). Any thoughs?

Try unchecking pixelbuffer objects and compression in springsettings.

You didn't updated to the newest drivers, that's a bug in <180 drivers + incorrect driver settings (you enabled HigherPerformance in ImageSettings)

edit: Nvm, Series5 isn't support in newer drivers anymore, still it's the user problem (you set incorrect driver settings).

Solved. As you said i had High Performance checked in image settings, i turned it one level down and its worked like a charm. I can play and alt-tab freely now. Thank you very much mister.
