Additional Comments

Installed through the Orange Box DVDs. While using the command line option -dxlevel 81 the game works flawlessly. With higher dxlevels, there's no in-game HUD (no crosshair, no health and ammo display) and subtitles don't work. Everything else works. I'm running the game on a GeForce 8600GTS with the 173.14.12 drivers.
