Ok, So I have Vista and with the new drivers, the BF2142 black bug was upsetting me. An my firend with XP couldnt even play with the artifacts all over his screen.

I scoured all over and found out whats causing it, which is your AA. But just simply turning it off is annoying and not acceptable.

So, for both users, I have found a temporary fix that works great.

1) Turn off AA IN GAME
2) Go to nVidia Control panel and go to Adjust image setting with preview
3) Check the Use the Advance 3d Settings
4) Then click Take me there
5) Under Global Settings switch Antialaising -Mode to Override any application settings
6) Switch Antialaising - Setting to whatever you had in game (2x - 16x)
7) Apply, enter game, enjoy with AA and no more bugs. smile.gif

Feedback from anyone if this worked for you or not! Pretty confident it should work for most setups.

I'm running a 9800 GX2 in multi-gpu mode.
