Missing materials and textures

i think this dosent happen to alot of people but
when i play single player and multiplayer, you can see most props and backgrounds are white or with purple streaks
also, the 3 other characters are like shooting out streaks of materials which makes the game lag
and there is no hand and weapon textures. there are gun sounds and talking from the characters so the sound materials are intact but the game is still missing alot of materials
even the intro movie works alright.
i uninstalled and reinstalled it quite a few times and also verified the game files, but still have the same problem. is it possible to download the other materials and textures from other sources? Please reply soon
see attachments for the problem

I don't think you are missing files as much as you have shader or video driver issues. Please post your dxdiag information.

You video card is below the minimum specs to run the game. The specs call for a 6600 or higher. I don't know that you will be able to run the game with this card.

Your CPU is marginal as well. Specs call for a 3GHZ, and yours is a 2.6. Not much below 3, but add that to the sub par video card and you will have problems, as you already know.

The best you can hope for is to lower all your video settings the the absolute minimums and see what happens. If you still have these issues, you will need to get a better video card.
