I did install Patje's mod tool which allows me to use the catalyst driver on my laptop's video card a little while ago. I think it could be the problem.

but how do i fix it?

This can happen in torque for a couple of reasons - a bad video driver (try uninstalling the one you just installed, or reinstall the manufacturers version if you can't). This is most likely since you just upgraded the driver.
It can also happen if you're low on memory and hard drive space.

Alright ill check it out. I figured it was soemthing to do with the driver. Arrg and i jsut got normal maps and per pixel shaders working too.
