Remember, HL2 was made for ATI cards, but you shouldnt have any problems.

Valve better put their vacation plans on hold for the next couple of days - unless they want a 'Dawn of the Dead' style riot on their hands.

I can just imagine Gabe getting sawn almost in half by a chainsaw-weilding Doug Lombardi.

just a thought

Check your video card driver. DirectX has some wierd issues with driver versions. You might try updating your driver to see if that helps.
