Or buy an ATI card that doesn't have this problem:
Nightmare is right, it's not the NoCD but must be your driver. This screenshot was taken today using my v1.2 NoCD (Non GeForce patch), ATI X850 and CAT 6.8 and NO compatability mode set. Did you apply the v1.2 patch for GeForce cards? It should be named
ff8sqeanvpatch.zip. You could also try running the config program and disabling various graphic options to see if one of them is causing the problem.
