I have a Creative TNT2 Ultra card. Tried the 12.41 Nvidia drivers (non-WHQL version) from their website and experienced system freezes occasionally when I would left click mouse (Logitech with Logitech driver 9.10). Then I tried Creative version 12.90 and it ran for about 12 hours overnight, then in the morning I forgot I had these new drivers and started burning CD. Left clicked on an icon and wham! Freeze. New coaster. Now I am back to Nvidia version 6.50, which I had before. My system is Intel BX with P3, Win2Ksp2, 384 megs.
