Man I have been having issues with drivers. Both the 185.81 and the 186.18's. I've gone back to the 181.71's and the crashing seems to be under control. I'm either getting BSOD's (0X0124), or system lock ups. Not sure if it's the drivers themselves or the drivers having issues with my card, or my card (8800GT) already not having enough balls to run new games. Anyone else having issues.
Funny you should say that Angry Man...I have got a few black screen and the nvidia driver stop working and recovered twice since these new drivers. I un installed them and driver sweeped and downloaded again and seems fine. But nVidia drivers are sooooo bad at the moment. I will revert back to the 186.08 aswell if acts up again.
COMPUTERS ARE NOT JUST MY LIFE...THEY ARE MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THEN THAT.
GO SELL CRAZY SOMEWHERE ELSE....WE'RE ALL STOCKED UP HERE!!!!!!
I had problems with some of the 186 (or was it 185?) series drivers where some games would crash and this was under Windows Server 2008 SP2 x64 (same kernel and version as Vista x64) so it may not be a Windows 7 specific problem. I rolled back to 182.50 and that is what I've been running no problems for a while now.

Sorry not a single problem here.But what games are we talking about?Im using 186.18's
COD 4 and 5 Prototype Far Cry 2 Crysis Warhead F.E.A.R.2. No problems with Return To Castle Wolfenstein though (I know, don't laugh I like at least one antique game on the list). No problems with XP gaming but that's with 32 bit drivers. Though I haven't been going there too often lately. I'm pretty much using Win7 64 exclusively right now. I'll tell you one thing. The event viewer is really overly complicated on 7. To the point that it's a POS and largely unusable. The mini dumps are OK though although everytime I have an 0x124 error it points to a different place.
