I'm no expert, but you may have patched your game incorrectly. Getting the latest patch and then the beta update works for anyone using version 1 of the game, but if yours started on version 3 then installing the v3 patch will break it.

Try reinstalling the game, but before patching right click your exe file and go to the version tab, if it's on version 3 then just install the beta patch. If it starts on version 1 then what you did (patch then beta) is right and in which case what is your OS and Graphics card?

(If someone else has another suggestion they may know more of what they are talking about).

Follow Cybershadow's link if you're not sure, but essentially yes just installing the beta is what you need to do. If however that is not enough to solve the problem...

A thread you need to check out based on that fact (http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?t=32198)
