What graphics card do you have?

Edit: If you don't know, type dxdiag in your start/search bar.

So... not sure what PSO2's minimum requirements are, but that's a 5, almost 6 year old card... it probably isn't good enough.

I don't think that's the issue here, my laptop is going on 6 years old and plays this game on Medium setting with easy.

Try using some older or newer graphics card drivers. You may just have a version that are conflicting in some way.

Have you tried setting all your settings to the absolute minimum before opening?

Yea out of date drivers can mess stuff up.
