Various errors I keep running into

I've had EF for a while now, and don't usually have a problem with it other than occaisional CTD. But recently I've been getting some pretty severe errors.

1. Large squares of the map will just drop out into nothingness, I can still cross over it like it's land, but the textures just seem to have dropped into a black abyss.
This happened once before a long time ago, I was on Best (2) and had amassed a fleet of artillery guns and was just pounding the hell out of a bot, then the glitch kicked in and CTD'd my ass.

2. When I call in the "Tank Riders" reinforcement, the tank has no tracks, it has it's body and turret but nothing below the chasis. Also, the riders have guns, heads and helmets... And that's all, no bodies.

3. Painfully bright pink loading screens, so bright that I can feel my soul burning up in agony.

I can attain pictures if needed, but I'm hoping someone will be able to advise me.

Possibly related: I recently downloaded the ZombieMod Halloween Beta, but I'm fairly sure I've played EF with that installed and had no issues, and as mentioned above the glitch has happened before, a long time ago.

Step 1. Try lower in your graphics.
Step 2. If that doesn't help, reinstall the game.

It sounds like either gfx gets to much todo and can't process it
Or it sounds like files are missing (loading screens).

Or both...

Just a last check, are you on the 2.601 patch?

What are your pc's specs?

I'm running on the latest patch.

I've re-installed the game and don't seem to be having any problems thus far, although I did get a CTD on Lyon (4) with 2 Russians against 2 Wehrmacht.

I'm not really sure what you mean by "specs" but I'm guessing it's this:
Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+ 2.31GHz
Memory (RAM): 2.00GB
System Type: 32-bit Operating System

And my graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce 9600

Did you install the last full version?
Did you install all DirectX routines?

Can you download and install again EF? Uninstall your current EF first.

Yes, that what I meant.
What do PC specs mean?

If you play any other game the graphics runs well?

I installed the full version and patched it via the launcher.
I have DirectX 9 installed if that's what you mean.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game and still crashed due to an unknown cause, it said it couldn't create an error report because my TEMP folder is full, however my TEMP folder is empty.

Every other game I play can run at pretty high graphics rather smoothly, like STALKER:SoC with full dynamic lighting.

If you want to run CoH at higher settings you need to install DirectX 10, because when you use high or ultra settings are saying good bye to DirectX 9 and greeting DX 10. Also you can try to fix the temp error with this:

1)Go to start Menu->Run->(or windows key + R)->temp
2)Delete all what you can.
3)Go to start Menu->Run->(or windows key + R)->%temp%
4)Delete all what you can.

You can use Unlocker if some file resists ;) (also you can see what process is using it and judge if it should be avoided).

Also if you have some free space to spare, you can increase the Virtual Memory.
