Are you referring to the demo or the full version of the game? If you are talking about the demo, I seem to recall a post stating the solution to this. If you are talking about the full version, then you have in illegal copy of the game.

Direct X 9 and the WMP 9 are both in Beta and should not be used.

This game supports Direct X 8.1b. There should be a text file in the Demo version with all the pertinent information. Look in the game install directory for this file.

Also, make sure you have the latest Video Drivers installed. I know for a fact that Nvida/Geforce have released new dirvers this month. THere's a link in the Readme file in the demo.
