My guess, since you aren't posting your comp's specs, is that it is a graphic display problem.

1) Did you check the system requirements for the game and make sure your computer can meet or exceed them?

2) Update your drivers.

 

DirectX 9.0c = http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&DisplayLang=en

NVidia = http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp

ATI = http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html

 

3) Go ahead and patch your game.
