I am getting some weird graphical corruption in Vista RC1 which I didn't get
in the Pre-RC1 version. Games not running in fullscreen seem to run fine and
with good performance, but once switched to fullscreen, artifacts are all
over the screen. Happens in both the Company of Heroes demo and Guild Wars,
the only games that I tested. Unfortunately it's impossible to take a
screenshot of these artifacts because they seem to disappear for a second
while taking the screenshot. I am using the same drivers for my 7800GT I
used with the Pre-RC1 client, the Vista 32bit drivers available from
nvidia.com.

I get the same thing with my ASUS 6800 (512MB DDR3 Memory) Card. It's
actually sometimes pretty bad the corruption and artifacting. I have even
loaded newest Nvidia drivers and to no avail.

I did accidentally find something that may be of use. When the artifacting
happens, ALT+TAB Guild Wars and re-maximize the game and wala no more
artifacts for about 10 seconds or if you pan the camera too much.
