Ok, I've been having a couple of issues with the current 266.58 drivers from nVidia, and random CTDs in games like WoW, Two Worlds 2, and Dawn of War 2.

I've found the solution to my problem though. The tweakforce drivers for 266.58. It's an unsigned version of the driver but it has worked so well for me so far. The lighting issues and crash to desktops in two worlds 2 have now been fixed. I've noticed a sizable fps increase in pretty much every game I've loaded since installing the new drivers.

Just might suggest checking it out if you've been having any trouble with the stock nVidia drivers.

I've been using TweakForce on and off for a long time with mixed results, sometimes they're great, sometimes there is really no difference, and sometimes they are even worse than the standard drivers. Worth trying if you don't mind installing new drivers, like me. In fact.. I rather enjoy installing new drivers.. it's feels like Christmas morning.. :mrgreen:

It's always a pain for me >.<

Every time I load a new driver it takes about 30 minutes to get my surround settings back up and running. I can count on at least 2 or 3 hard locks enabling the surround from the nvidia control panel.

I have never had this problem with my surround... :? It takes only 20 seconds to click enable and arrange the order of the screens and create resolutions. Maybe there is some other issue?
