Hope that's a little clearer.

Thank you all for your input shipmates, espacially you Fish for trawling the INet. For what it's worth, I tried the Betas........ SH3 hates them too I also started investigating the nvid forums, the BF3 forums too. I have to say I'm not sure who is worse NVidia for releasing such a bad driver, or EA/Dice. Even the EA bods on the forums point to a epilepsy warning when asked for a detailed manual

Anyways I digress. After mucho frustration BF3 has been banished from my HD. Nvidia 266.58 drivers have been reinstalled and all is well with the world

SH3 might have it's hiccups, but I'll take them over a many times done FPS any day. Why did I buy BF3? I'm still banging my head trying to answer the same question

Best regards and many thanks all.
