Default Graphical Issues because of Shader?

Ok, i have a weird technical issue with Cryostasis.
When i look at the walls or at the floor i can see some white dots all over the place...i wont try to explain it but instead I´ll just show you screens of my problem (;

With Shader-Model 2.0:



With Shader-Model 3.0:




My System:

Intel Core 2Quad Q9450, 4x2,66 GHz
4 GB RAM
ATI Radeon HD 4870, 2 GB

So...is there anything i can do about that?
Thanks for your help...

I have to say I don't see a problem. It just appears brighter in SM 4.

I don't know if you are just trying to get attention or what, but I see no artifacts. Maybe it is your screen?

Could you outline the issue in the images?

Hold up he does have white spots and has a valid claim HERE, so why not tell him what shader you are using, that doesn't see white spots

I viewed your shots just white dots in the shot I could see, just little white dots No orange boxes or whatever.

Kind of looks like you might be tareing, try to use V Sync and use the newest drivers for your card.

Looks like its part of the frost effect to me in those pictures. I noticed it too. Nothing to worry about I think. unless really is some orange boxes. Never seen anything like described like that in the game. Unless it's when got the flash light on and the more orange glow of the light is making them seem orange?

Want to be certain could try just slightly changing position or slightly moving view but still with same stop in view and if spots stay where they are then they are part of the texture/effect and almost certainly not a symptom of gpu overheating or anything.
Or even just look at none frosted surfaces (on a heated room) and see if they still show

Heres something ironic after reading your PC's specs I am miffed, you run a Intel Core 2Quad Q9450, 4x2,66 GHz
4 GB RAM
ATI Radeon HD 4870, 2 GB

And I only run a
Intel P4 3.4
1 GB Ram
ATI Radeon 3850 agp slot 512 mb

Now I have no probelms with the game it plays fast and has no glitches except on loading, its slow as a dead horse, but my graphics are all good.

Now I am not bragging but only trying to say maybe its that PhysX stuff, did you get the latest update for PhysX ???

BTW I am running the ATI Catalyst drivers 9.4 from thier site, what do you have and do you run anti virus stuff while playing ???
