    Well I've been waiting for nvidia to release a new driver since 260.99 but they still haven't! Frequently after i play many java applets and flash videos and other programs my screen will freeze up and go a solid color and make a BZZZZZZZZZ sound. I know it has to do with the driver...

    Any help?
