From the SoS Troubleshooting Guide:


For all Graphics and OpenGL Issues

For anybody who is experiencing any Graphics Issues, please update your video drivers. The following issues are resolved by updating your graphics card drivers:
- Black/ White Screen upon Log in
- Blacked out road ways on maps
- Missing letters or no text
- Character Creation Errors
- Log-in issues

Please refer to our video card drivers page located here (http://solstice.outspark.com/support/download). Once on the webpage, scroll to the bottom and you should be able to find the drivers of today’s top video card manufacturers.

All listed graphics card drivers are automatically supplied with the latest version of OpenGL. There is no need to seek OpenGL 1.2 once you have installed the most current graphics drivers.
