Has anyone been having problems with the latest Nvidia drivers?

I'm asking because after I installed the 93.71 drivers I started having a few problems with my games.
After installing the drivers I got a few BSOD's with the nv4disp error. I was also getting missing textures in games and some games where crashing the whole PC.
I've since uninstalled them and gone back to 91.31. The BSOD's have gone but the missing textures is still happening in some games but not all and some of my games just throw me back to the desktop without an error message. :whistling:

I've check the event logs nothing in there, dxdiag test were fine, latest hardware drivers except of course my graphics card.

Specs:

Intel 3.2GHz P4, DFI Lanparty 875pro Rev B mobo, 1GB DDR, 256MB Geforce 6800GT, SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS, 2X 120GB IDE HDD's etc etc..

I run my Nvidia 5200 FX on Vista, some games have serious problems, IE, not loading at all. I would run a check through windows update and see what it comes up with, or stick to what your CD has on it.

We're still kinda waiting to see exactly what happens with the 93 series drivers, but nothing has cropped up quite yet.

The 91.31, however, were just horrifyingly bad unless you were running a 7950 GX2. 91.47 or 84.21, in my opinion. I had some issues with the 91.47, so I'm still on the 84.21s.
