Hey how you doin?

Well this is a really weird spot to post such a question. Maybe even regarding the wrong forum to ask it. But, I'll share with you my experiences regarding the GTX 460.

I run 2 GTX 460's in SLI - MSI N460GTX 1GB Cyclone and the N460 GTX 1 GB Hawk. Each overclocked to 900 Mhz.The 260.99 drivers are fine - or at least not the main problem.
They still arn't very good drivers as I see alot of screen tearing in menus and sometimes in game. Usually Vsync will fix this, but even with it forced on at a steady 60 fps I still get it. But, I can play CODBO and BFBC2 ultra smoothly still at max graphics.

I did have some major issues actually maintaining SLI for the 460's. Lots of crashes in games and sometimes just activating SLI was impossible.
The source of the problems maybe be more surprising then you might think.

Regarding drivers being the cause, your not far off it. I found after much reading it was Realtek sound drivers interfering with the graphics card drivers. Realtek drivers tend to be the drivers for onboard sound cards on your mainboard. I noticed the Realtek drivers had updated. I rolled back the drivers to the original. Problems solved. Games ran smoothly and rarely crashed.

This may help you solve your problems. There is that other factor that CODBO is a terribly buggy game, because it is a console port after all.
