    You mean the random artifacts showing up?
    There are several causes of this problem.
    Clean your PC out first, following the steps here.
    Then, if that doesn't help, reinstall your drivers.
    1. Download the new drivers, but don't install them.
    2. Uninstall the old drivers.
    3. Reboot.
    4. Install new drivers.
    5. Reboot.
    See if that helps.
    If neither of those help, try reinstalling the game.
    If that doesn't help, post back and we'll try and help you further.

      umm, all the drivers are fine and the game still has probs. i think its due to my video card not getting enoguh electricity or over heating, casue when i tuned down graphics big time it was mostly fine.

      If it's heat, then cleaning your PC, as I said, would help, did you try that yet?
      And did you follow the steps for your drivers?
      And did you reinstall the game?
      Basically, did you follow any of my steps?
