Since I consider it common courtesy to thank people for their help I usually do it in advance but in case I forget or feel the need to show my appreciation of an exceptionally great service then I send a final response.
Anyway, if it says 'closed ticket number' I don't think you risk opening it simply by responding 'no thanks'.

Hi, sorry for not answering, but only now I've managed to get some time -_-
For the ones that wonder what was the problem, the offender was Rainbow Six in Windows 8.1, Intel HD Graphics. I use Ubuntu in my main laptop, no partitions nor emulators, so I pretty much condemned myself about games, and I used to be a console junkie, anyway, so I didn't care. Then I discovered GOG and it's awesomeness, and luckily my mother got this new Vaio mini-laptop that, even if basic by today's standards, it is more powerful than most of the games here ask for and my mother still doesn't know how to use (she barely uses it for Facebook, anyway, and she's happy using her cell phone for that), so it's de facto mine.
The problem is with the graphics. Unless I look directly to the sky or to the ground (and I mean directly, the lowest or highest your character can turn) graphics get all messed up and you're effectively blind. Support told me it was because of a well-known bug in the Intel HD, and I had to either wait for a fix or take the "exchange or money back" offer. I decided I would wait for either a fix or another computer (It's not like I can't recycle some old box to run a game this humble in requirements). I love Tom Clancy's games and when I saw they had the Original Saint Trinity (Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon and Splinter Cell), and in a bundled discount to cap, my sqeeing could be heard for miles, and no dumb graphic card will get in my way >:)
Thanks for the answers and comments! The nature of the posts convince me even more of this site's and its community's awesomeness :)
P.S.: Is there a "formatting rules" manual/thread? I want to know how to cite... Thanks in advance!

One is use (quote)(/quote) by itself, like this
This is a quote
The other is to quote a specific post in the thread, by using (quote_#)(/quote), like this In both cases, replace parentheses () with brackets []. If you click "reply" on a post, it also sends a notification to the person that wrote said post, even if you don't quote them.
