I have a

Asus K53E Laptop
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
Intel HD Graphics 3000
8GB of RAM

Characters, NPC and Enemy Monsters not Rendering will not render after the following troubleshooting attempts.

Updating all Drivers and the Operating System
Restarting
Reinstalling whole game
Opening all required ports


None of this was an issue prior to the most recent update.

Others have complained in this thread.
