In Water Hazard, I have run into a few graphical error that are being a little irritating. When you have to hop out of the boat and go inside to open one of the dock doors(the area where you first get the revolver. As you come out of the room with the revolver and the three guys you have to kill, there is another door and a stair well up, but I can see strait through the walls and see the mesh behind it and some of the mobs upstairs, as soon as I step through the door, I can see the stairs fine, but then I can't see back the way I came, same issue, mesh and no textures. Any suggestions would be great. See specs for system in sig. All drivers for the GTX are newest and it doesn't seem to have any problems anywhere else, WoW runs fine, HL1 Source runs fine. Most of HL2 runs fine, this seems to be the only time I have noticed it. I have played around with the settings in HL2 and lowered all the AF AA and things as low as they would go and it didn't seem to make a difference.

Wierd. I played all the way through HL2 when I first got my GTX, and the only thing I noticed was the white texture issue that NV fixed in the next driver. You aren't by chance running Win XP Pro x64 are you? I did install that (briefly), and there was some graphics weirdness going on with the drivers with that, but no problems with 32-bit Windows XP.

Nope, running XP Pro with all the updates in good ol 32 bit flavour. *shrugs* I found something on Valve's site that might fix it but I will have to wait till I get home to check, looks like having steam run a GFC cache check might fix it.
