nVidia & XP known driver issue?

[BraeBrae]

Hey Folks,

Someone brought to my attention yesterday that the two last XP crashes I experienced with XP Pro may be related to the current reference drives from nVidia. The suggestion was to use the last 2000 drivers (ver. 22.5), but I cannot find any such drivers. Anyone else experiences crashes, freezes, or other wierd graphical behavior with nVidia GF products?

Forgot to include my setup:

PII-400 Intel Retail on Abit VT6X4 mobo
256MB Kingston SDRAM
Elsa Gladiac GF2 MX
SB Live!
RealMagic Holloywood+
2 x WDC 20GB 7200 RPM drives
Sony DVD-ROM
3COM 3C509B-TX NIC

Commonly play CS in Win98FE. XPpro crashed while lauching MediaPlayer, and then again while reviewing screen savers. All crashes occurred with default install of XP w/updates and nothing else (except reference drivers from nVidia).

No, don't have problems with XP and Nvidia cards (home and work -- I have XP and Nvidia cards). What drivers are you currently using?
