Do the "new" drivers seem smoother,or is it just my imagination? They seem to work fine on my system.I wonder if they finally fixed the "nvlddmkm.sys" intermittent error I was getting.

Thanks!

Says at the top of the dowload page that this is a beta driver. But the link that leads to this on the nvidia site is for WHQL drivers. Is this a beta driver or a WHQL release? Thanks!

At least partially fixed it. I used to get it every time UAC initiated and now it is working without the problem.

Well today upon booting the error returned. The nvlddmkm.sys was stop responding,but has recovered. This error message usually happens upon booting,but not on every boot. It also sometimes happens when logging off. comments anyone??

I never have it on boot or shut-down. I frequently had it when the screen darkened as UAC was invoked. Same message you had. At the moment I don't remember if I had the problem at any other times. About 90% of my system problems are either IEexplorer or Explorer failing, usually several times a day so I have a system reliability rating of 3.2 (yikes) on the Reliability and Performance Monitor.

Whoops. Just went into MSCONFIG and had two driver failures and recoveries before it stabalised. Lasted about 1 minute and was worried I wasn't going to get a final recovery.

The new beta nVidia drivers *fixed* the reboot problem I was having with my MSI 8800GTX video card on my Tyan K8WE(S2895) motherboard. I did not think it was a problem with how I had installed the drivers. Unfortunately I will have to rebuild my 3ware array yet again, and I had another "unclean shutdown" with the old drivers.

I'm using the 100.65 WHQL driver and get the "display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding" etc message about 25% or the time when UAC is invoked, about 70% of the time when waking from sleep and/or rebooting. Most annoying, every now and then it gets locked in a failure loop and won't recover without a full shutdown. Based on reports so far it sounds like the new beta driver is no better; I'll probably save my time and wait for another release. What a pain!
