Best nVidia Driver?

Hi Guys and Gals.
Not posted in a while as major computer problems have meant I haven't been doing any flying recently.
Here's my problem. After a full hard drive failure I have had to re-install every thing from scratch and although I now have FSX+A back I have some graphics issues. I seem to remember back in the day I had a rush of blood to the head and updated the driver for my NVidia gtx480 card and had the same problem I'm having now. Runway textures are "bleeding" through each other and constantly flickering. I guess what I'm asking is, does anyone know of a previous version of the driver which may cure my problem. A link to the download would really help also.

Many thanks in advance.
Zaphod.

Zaph....

Have you still got your original CD of the drivers which came with the card?.....

I often find that they are the most reliable!

Then start off from there...

Hey Fozz...
Long time no hear.
How's the weather in your neck of the woods? Unnaturally mild down here in the soft South.
I seem to remember you gave me the same advice many years ago after my first rush of blood. Not even sure at this stage if the card came with a disc or not. I seem to remember I was able to download an older driver from the net which sorted it out but the old grey cells can't remember what version.

Best wishes for the New Year.

Zaph.. :dance:
