TB,
I'm not skuzzy, but I AM a hardened veteran of the driver wars.

I've fought on the Nvidia and ATI fronts. In my experience, if you aren't having any problems, don't mess with it. If I had a nickel for every time I needlessly upgraded and immediately rolled back, I'd have about 25c

Why would you want to change it? We already know the 9x.xx series has a lot of issues.

Anymore, newer drivers are not neccessarily better drivers. The 61.77 drivers are still the best drivers for the 5000 series and older NVidia cards,as an example.
