graphics problem-pls help...

I have just installed SH3, upgraded to 1.4, GWX 1.03 and cfg files, SH3 cmdr 2.7.
Only mods are a couple of Venatores, some that came with GWX and a couple that include xtra tracks for the gramophone.

i start a new career and leave port and everything is fine. About 5/mins into the game when I am well away from port and speeding up tc to max, the graphics suddenly seem to crap themselves. All the buttons become like black sqaures and then the screen just becomes a mix of colors, mainly grey and dark ones.

I have just upgraded to:
Mainboard : Asus P5N32-E SLI
Chipset : nVidia nForce 680i SLI SPP
Processor : Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 @ 2400 MHz
Physical Memory : 2048 MB (2 x 1024 DDR2-SDRAM )
Video Card : Nvidia Corp NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS
Hard Disk : ST380817AS (80 GB)
DVD-Rom Drive : BENQ DVD DD DW1650
Monitor Type : Samsung SyncMaster - 19 inches
Operating System : Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition 5.01.2600 Service Pack 2
DirectX : Version 9.0c

I have searched forums and cant find anything to help me. If anyone can, I would greatly appreciate.

The thing which s**ts me most is that I spent $2k on upgrades to play games like sh3 and oblivion on higher settings that wont crash but I seem to have more problems now than when i did on an obsolete p4, agp, 7 series setup.
Really pissing me off.
