I go to NVs site, but when I use the newest 7series drivers CSS says my drivers are outdated and I get massive artifacts with overclocks that were just stable at the same temp last week.

The ones that I got from NVs site the filename says:
94.24_forceware_winxp_english_whq

But they aren't even WHQL certified...

The 8800 ones I downloaded and am going to try to use:
158.22_forceware_winxp_english_whql

You could try the 84.21's which I'm still running on my 7900GT.

They seem to run ok and I've never had artifacts in Steam games even though I'm overclocking.

They can be downloaded from the archive on Nvidia's site.

Another nod to the 84.21s from me w/7800GS. I *hated* that the drivers went from 20mb for the 80 series to 40+mb for the 90 series, just for a gimpy new control panel. Never have a problem playing any game at any setting w/WinXP.
