New NVIDEA beta driver out

No doubt those last drivers melted my card. Everything was fine before and I loaded the driver and after about 3 hours screen goes black. Couldn't play for five minutes and screen went black....Then I found out the drivers messed up the fans and caused overheating, went to the nvidia forum and found that hundreds were complaining of fried cards. Course they offered nothing for ruining our cards. Got another one, things are fine, but I'll let others test these drivers.

That sounds like it would have been the perfect opportunity to tell Nvidia where they could stick it and go buy an ATI card... Seems like Nvidia's really been of its game lately.
