Font problems in Half-Life 2

Hi all,

I'm still using the trial to take CrossOver Games for a spin before I buy and so far it's been smooth sailing installing Steam and downloading my copy of Half Life 2. However, when I run HL2 all the text has black boxes around it like the transparency isn't working (I don't mean the captions, I mean in the menus and everywhere). There also seems to be a lot of flicker in the menus with some options completely garbled.

I'm on an iMac, 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1Gb RAM, Radeon X1600. HL2 works fine under Win XP through BootCamp. I've read about the regedit fix regarding Ep. 2 and TF2, would that help in this case?

Thanks for your time,

Daniel
