Hi Jeremy, Ryan. For info, I installed 181.22 on two Windows XP PCs with PNY 9800GTX's. One PC blue screened every night, and the other PC produced random noise on screen that looked like snow when panning around a commercial 3d application we use. Reverting to 181.20 solved both those problems. Gary.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I don't know if this is pertinent information or not, but all of the games I play regularly (Bioshock, Fallout 3, Steam games, WOW) all were totally hosed on 181.20 with my GTX 280 card; graphical anomalies, weird crashes, you name it. I upgraded to 181.22 and the problems went away...
