I didn't think the 174.74 WHQL released today worked with the 8800 series, only the beta version did?

GeForce Release 174 would agree with you, since GeForce Release 174 doesn't show them.

However, it just has non-WHQL support for everything else, since both objects download the same thing.

I'm running that on Vista x64 right now. No problems so far.

I had a bluescreen yesterday while running FRAPS to check my framerate in Gears of War in DX10 mode. It may have been an isolated incident, though.

Installed the beta drivers, things seemed to go okay until once the fuck again while eq2 was in the background, a full-screen DVD playback via WMP locked up the entire PC halfway through, remind us that at this junction nVidia FUCKING FAILS.

I haven't had to deal with this degree of defunct fucking bullshit since I went through 3 handicapped ATi cards in row and swore never to buy from them again. Maybe these pigfucking moronic shitheads needs to write their drivers in Java while wearing football helmets.

Deactivated item.

Still no problems running the beta 174.74s here!

The way I cause crashes is to run 2 EQ2 clients at the same time in windowed mode, and then also at the same time play a DVD through Windows Media Player. Or even 1 EQ2 client, but the combination of those destabilizes the driver when it shouldn't ever.
