Anyone else noticing problems with an 8800GTX and BF2 / HL2 / CS:S?

I figured it was a driver issue, and I've heard of other people complaining, but I wanted to make sure that it was indeed a wide-spread issue, and not just a problem with my card.

I can't even load up a Half-Life 2 based game. HL2, HL2M, CS:S, etc. all have video issues just loading up the menus in the game. Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2: Special Forces play beautifuly, except for textures in the distance and some fog effects, which appear as untextured white surfaces, kind of like a low video memory problem.

Is anyone else experiencing these problems? Has nVidia given a date for the next BIOS update? I guess buying the latest and greatest hardware makes you a guinnea pig.

No it's not fixed yet.
And your talking about the fog problem in the source games right?

Haven't heard anything about BF2 though.

Just got the 8800 GTX yesterday and I am having the same problem. Can't load any source based games. Having issues with Splinter Cell Double Agent as well (1/2 the time it loads, 1/2 the time it crashes while loading, and when it loads the textures for Sam are all screwed up).

I'm sure its probably a driver issue. Odd that the card is having difficulty running source based games, considering my particular card (the EVGA model) came bundled with Dark Messiah.
