Where did you get your copy of Halo? Is it brand new from the store?

Hmm, I'd try uninstalling it then reinstalling. If that doesn't work then try it on someone elses computer if you can to see if it's just your machine.

personally, i'd just reinstall and not bother tryin it on someones computer, it sounds like you might have a driver problem. ensure that you have directx 9.0 (or 9.0c) on your computer, and that you have the latest drivers from your video card/chip manufacturer installed on your computer.

as i said, make sure your computer has the latest directx and the latest driver for whatever video card you've got, search the manufacturer's website.

for example, my card has an ATI x800 GPU, so when i started having problems with call of duty 2, i googled the error i got, did the trouble-shooting i found, and checked to make sure i had ATI's latest drivers for the x800 GPU. turns out i didn't, and installing it fixed everything.
