    tl;dr: What Forceware driver >190.xx is fully functional?

    Story: I'm trying to do stuff that involves CUDA 2.3, which requires a Forceware version >190.xx. I've tried various 190.xx and 191.xx drivers, however all of them have caused the Powermizer functions to either remain on Extra clocks or jump very sporadically to Extra clocks. I tried a 195.39 driver from LaptopVideo2Go that seemed to work okay at best, however my screen brightness was not functional until I reverted back to 186.03.

    So I suppose I'm asking:
    1. What driver do you use?
    2. Do you have issues with Powermizer behavior/screen brightness/anything else?

    Thanks all!

    I'm running the 195.55 now. Works well for me. There are some complaints about the screen brightness not working in the Nvidia control panel, but I use the function keys for that.
