I'm getting the artifacts now too...I've been playing for about 20 hours and it just started today. Not sure what to change to fix it. Screenshots for an example:

The exact same problem here :(

Due to my addiction to TES im playing the game inspite of this problem but it really makes it hard and in some places the corruption in so much that its nearly impossible to play.

A huge disappointment..

Although im very relieved to find that im not alone

i would really really love a solution to this :(

Those who changed graphic cards or updated drivers I recommend to uninstall them and use driver sweep from GURU 3D. Follow carefully their instructions to PERFECTLY uninstall your drivers and any leftovers.

You should also disable automatic installation of drivers from Windows 7 (if it is your case) so they won't download old crap again.

Good guide here: http://www.windowsobserver.com/2009/12/29/turn-off-windows-7-automatic-driver-installation/

Then when you boot up install newest nVidia or ATI drivers.

Reboot and try Skyrim again.

 

Hopefully this will help some of you.

 

For notebookers. Sorry guys driver support is one of those reasons why I never bought or recommended a notebook for gaming. :S You can still try this though.

I dont want to sound ungrateful but the same thing has been said by other people lots of times in this topic and it didnt work. You think noone else thought of drivers?

I fixed it in my computer!

 

Ok so when the leshcat thing didn't work I actually e-mailed the guy to know if I was doing anything wrong (I was but that turned out to be irrelevant). When he asked me for hardware IDs, I had no idea what that was and he instructed me to find it in the device manager.

I never got to the said IDs but I fixed the texture problem differently.

 

I right clicked my graphics card in the device manager and there was an option to Update Drivers. I clicked that and a window popped up saying Windows was looking for drivers online or whatever. Now, I expected Windows not to find anything since I don't trust the system at all, turns out it must have updated it because after it said it was done (it took several minutes) the game worked perfectly. I couldn't believe it.

 

Hope this works for other people too. Let me know. Sorry if it doesn't - apparently there's a lot of solutions and none of them work for all of us - and best wishes.
