The 3.81 drivers SUCK for my geforce..
I'm getting random REBOOTS, and my sound stops all of a sudden in a game of HL..
Then I installed the 3.78 drivers w/nv4mini.sys swap, and it is working like it used to..
So i'm going to wait for the next driverset of NVidia..

Running with the 3.81 Win2k drivers and Q3 and UT seem are running very stable as does any video I run through media player.
Only real problem I am still having with games is that Q2 crashes after about 5 or 10 mins. Not a system freeze but an application crash and I'm back to the desktop with an error dialog box. I have tried the nvoglnt.dll from 3.81 back to 3.75 as well as the latest one from the NT4 drivers with no luck.
All I really want to know is if anyone else is having this problem with Quake 2 so I can relax, knowing it's a driver issue.
System:
Win2k, Abit BX6 2.0, 384 meg PC100, P3-800@897, Creative DDR, SB Live, Adaptec 2940 U2W

I think these drivers are the most stable ones yet. Now whenever q3 crashes because of me trying smp the computer just shuts down q3 and goes into windows.. I dont have any other problems, they seem to be faster also..
The 3.81 drivers worked fine for me in games, but most (not all) of my OpenGL screen savers crashed to DrWatson as soon as I ran them. Even the screen savers that ship with Win2k (i.e. 3D FlowerBox) would crash. I went back to 3.78 and everything works fine. Anyone else try this?
Anyone tested 3DMark2000 with 3.81? I've got a TNT2U and it always crashes back to the desktop within the first 3 benchmarks (helicopters). I only finished the bench once right after installing new RAM...
