Issues with TSE demos in full-screen

I happened to be in Windows the other day & decided to try out the 3 TSE demos on the site. The first demo released had no issues with it. The Car & Dojo had some rather odd screen corruption to it in full-screen. Window mode was fine. I have Windows XP with the latest updates installed, DirectX 9.0c & version 81.98 of the nvidia driver. I have a 6600GT in a PCI Express system. Below are the screen shots if it can help out in any way. I've tried changing to different resolutions & checking out different options in the options menu, but all produced the same result.

So it would seem... maybe knowing that it happens with this card, they might be able to figure it out (unless it has something to do with the driver itself). I wonder if other higher end nvidia cards would do this as well?

I also have a Geforce 6600 GT PCIe with the 81.98 nVidia drivers.

It does this for me too. It didn't use to do it, but having recently downloaded and compiling the latest HEAD, it now behaves this way.I also have a Geforce 6600 GT PCIe with the 81.98 nVidia drivers.

Looks like a Driver problem to me. I have Geforce 6600 GT PCIe Driver 78.01 and have no problems, other than the known issues.

Well now... it seems the video driver has solved it for me as well. I tried all the drivers (going backwards installing them). The 78.01 (released in September 2005) worked.

Also I get very low frame rates, sometimes dropping as little as 8fps. I have other games installed and have never had problems maintaining reasonable frame rates, so I don't believe my system specs are causing the problem. My guess is TSE has an issue with our type of video card.
