Having trouble with Left 4 Dead

[Fabz]

Whenever I enter a new game, this happens :

Any solutions?

And please dfon't tell me tjhat I have to buy a new graphics card

What graphics card do you have?

I'd suggest:

- playing with the Video settings in game
- checking you have upto date video drivers
- if all fails try reinstalling...

Does this happen in any other games (CSS for example) ?
