Mario Kart Wii graphics problems

[de_stroyed]

i know this has probably been discussed a million times already and i have searched through many threads to no avail. i was curious if anyone has had this same problem:



and what steps you took to resolve it or if it can be resolved.

i'm currently in the process of updating to the latest drivers for my graphics card as well as directx, have no idea what effect if any this will have.


system specs:
E8400 @ 3.00 GHz
4 gb g.skill ddr2 1066
EVGA 8800gt 512MB superclocked
Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit

thanks for any help you can offer!
