I'm using the 285.62 (latest) drivers on my Windows 7 64-bit installation with a GTS 450 overclocked card, is anybody else having problems with the drivers crashing, resulting in the screen going blank for a couple of seconds and then coming back on? I've not had these problems with the 285.62 drivers before until a couple of days ago, and on my old PC with the 6600GT the 285.62 drivers work fine on XP 32-bit, and I've used these drivers on other PCs with NVIDIA cards and they work. Is it just my installation do you think? Should I reinstall the drivers? They're crashing a lot for me at the moment, and my PC got a BSOD the other day regarding Memory Management.
 
Might as well try a reinstall. Be sure to remove every last piece of the drivers when uninstalling. Make sure you choose the right OS when downloading them.
 
Hey mate, I was having the same problem a few days ago. Going into the nVidia Control Panel and selecting the GPU as the PhysX processor (as opposed to auto-select) solved it for me.

If the above doesn't work, uninstall, then begin a new driver installation. Make sure you select Clean Install to make sure previous settings are wiped out.
