Latest Nvidia drivers = shit?

Just got the 275 and I've had twice already in SCII, this terrible crash were colors all over the screen get's fucked up, some look 8-bit etc., some polygons go crazy, the mouse is changed to colored distorted lines, and after 20-30 sec my computer stops responding, signal to the screen is lost, last time the SC music was also distorted to metallic noise. I had these kinds of crashes like half a year back rarely, but not again until twice tonight. Wasn't any other change than the new Nvidia drivers so...

I'm using the 275.33 forceware release without any problems so far, I have two EVGA GTX 460's in SLI. Maybe it's just the game or your hardware or maybe the driver didn't install correctly. Try uninstalling, cleaning with driver cleaner and reinstall the latest Nvidia drivers.

or youre lucky

ive had several issues with nvidia drivers and it wasn't cause they weren't setup right. its because the drivers do suck

specially with dual monitors

Well, it's been some SCII sessions again with the old drivers, and no crash. The only 2 times I played with the 275 drivers, it crashed. So the chance of the drivers not being the issue would be 1:150^2 = 1:22500 (if we say I've played SCII about ~300 times)
