Black square artifacting on BC2 in SLI

[ChronoDetector]

Alright, I'm getting these annoying black square artifacting with SLI enabled on my GTX 580's in Bad Company 2 and its really annoying. Not only that, it freezes my entire computer and I must reboot. Is there a fix for this? I'm using the latest BETA NVIDIA display drivers and using the latest patch for Bad Company 2.

sounds like its either drivers or the cards are overheating.. but i'd lean toward it being the drivers before it being the cards since they are beta drivers..

how about using the 266.58 WHQL drivers?
i have a similar setup and have logged a lot of hours in BC2.
You never had any freezing in game before the SLI setup?

BC2 is pretty sensitive to memory overclocking (documented all over the net) and is known for their infamous instances of CTDs

I'm running the cards at stock speeds but the cards are factory overclocked by Gigabyte, both are running at 795Mhz. Will that be a contributing factor to the crashing and artifacting?
