Well artifacts are artifacts basically >.>

Have you overclocked your GFX card?

1. If you installed using the TRAY & PLAY option, reinstall using the other option.
2. Get the latest Graphics Card Drivers, link
3.Make sure your computer's not oveheating.
Post a DxDiag.
Check the sticky.

You shouldn't complain, you've got a build-in wall-hack

Probably vista killed your GPU like it did mine 3 times. I have had similar artifacts from playing h2v. Check to see if you get any slight problems in other graphically intensive games and if it does, go file an RMA on your graphics card.
