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