Windows 7, New NVidia Drivers, and CoX: Screenshot

While fixing most of the issues I'd had before in Vista, there's a very rare little glitch that does make for an interesting screenshot or three.

I believe I've found what causes the problem, so I'm not quite looking for technical support - I'd be in the wrong forum if I were! - but I thought the results were interesting enough to share.

That's probably the coolest glitch I've seen.

That... is a bug I wish I'd run across!

I'd actually send those to Microsoft anyway. See if NC will advertise with it.

Which driver release is it, and what settings, just out of curiosity? (Running Win7 x64 on a 7900GS.)

Windows 7 x64 - Nvidia Control Panel lists the drivers as version 179.23 - which is older than the most current VIsta version, I believe, but tooled specifically as a beta driver for Windows 7. Oh, and I'm working with an 8800 GT at the moment.

So far as settings go.. maximum across the board.

Funnily enough, I actually thought it WAS some kind of mothership at first glance: and then a second look corrected me.
