Why are some tiles in the landscape missing?

Question Title: Why are some tiles in the landscape missing?
Category: Graphics
Question: I'm not really sure what category this goes in, but i've tried everything, and thought i'd ask here. Lately when logging onto AC the landscape shows missing pieces. Not nontextured white ones.. but missing. I can see through areas of land, and see the sky, next mountain, or water depending on the geographic location. Is this a known issue? a bug? I have the newest drivers, and tested many old ones. Reinstalled the game, and reinstalled Direct X. Is there something that can be done besides emptying my internet cache.

At times when i die or log in the tile is missing where i logg in at and says i'm in mid air and cannot logg off or on.

Any information about this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Answer: Deleting your cell.dat file will fix this - somehow it's become currupt and isn't updating the landscape in an area..
