Did you try uninstalling and then reinstalling the game?

Dear Izzy,
This happened to me while I was playing doom 3. This is how I fixed it: 1. Got a new hard drive cable. A good one not cheap. 2. Added a Vantec fan card for extra cooling to my vid card. 3. Replaced power supply to Antec 550 watt. 4. Download updated drivers for vid card. ATI and ASUS both said to replace power supply. I didn't believe them but after I did the above my game worked. ATI also mentioned that heat plays a big factor. Since then I have been on a mission to cool a extreme gamers computer properly. Do you have FryCry...the game? Try playing that and see if the same happens. I use FryCry to test my vid cards. The game really puts vid cards to the grind. Let us know, junkdk

Dear Izzy,
Good. And you didn't have to spend a dime. Although, everything I told you was a true event. It just goes to tell you, try the simple fix first.  Take care, junkdk
