It was ok with a low end Nvidia GT220, and with an old Sapphire ATI 3450.

I'm going to try the driver from my old 3450 to see if this cures it.
Will post with result.
Good Luck!

The blocky menu problem was solved a couple of months ago as are the purple flashing and the prop-disc flashing. Catalyst 10.8 works very well with IL-2.
Here's my conf.ini Render OGL settings if you want to check them out (read the notes after):

[Render_OpenGL]
TexQual=3
TexMipFilter=3
TexCompress=2
TexFlags.UseDither=1
TexFlags.UseAlpha=0
TexFlags.UseIndex=0
TexFlags.PolygonStipple=1
TexFlags.UseClampedSprites=0
TexFlags.DrawLandByTriangles=1
TexFlags.UseVertexArrays=1
TexFlags.DisableAPIExtensions=0
TexFlags.ARBMultitextureExt=1
TexFlags.TexEnvCombineExt=1
TexFlags.SecondaryColorExt=1
TexFlags.VertexArrayExt=1
TexFlags.ClipHintExt=0
TexFlags.UsePaletteExt=0
TexFlags.TexAnisotropicExt=0
TexFlags.TexCompressARBExt=1

TexFlags.TexEnvCombine4NV=0
TexFlags.TexEnvCombineDot3=1
TexFlags.DepthClampNV=0
TexFlags.SeparateSpecular=1
TexFlags.TextureShaderNV=0

HardwareShaders=1

Shadows=2
Specular=2
SpecularLight=2
DiffuseLight=2
DynamicalLights=1
MeshDetail=2
VisibilityDistance=3

Sky=2
Forest=3
LandShading=3
LandDetails=2

LandGeom=2
TexLarge=1
TexLandQual=3
TexLandLarge=1

Note: I'm running UP or I would otherwise be using TexCompress=0

Disable Catalyst A.I. in the Catalyst Control Centre. I enable Wait for vertical refresh, and switch on Triple buffering

hope this helps
