thats a problem with service pack 2 and 256mb video cards, i had the same problem. what u have to do is get the patch for v1.04 then patch the newest version of halo which is v1.07. or u could just have the auto updater do it for u which is in the source file for halo. ex. c/program files/microsoft games/halo. hope this works ;)

P.S. if it doesnt we'll figure it out dont worry ;)

and, if that doesn't work, go to the start menu, click on run, and type dxdiag. run the program, and tell us if there are any problems. you may have something a little more problematic
