    The new driver 195.62 gives me BSODing upon just logging in to my machine. Note: After first reboot upon installing the driver, it worked fine for a few minutes and then BSOD'd while watching a flash video. It then BSODs whenever I try to log back in to the machine. I've since uninstalled the driver through safe mode.

    I have a HP HDX 16, Nvidia 130m, 2.1ghz C2D, Windows 7 64bit.
    I did a clean install of the driver (ie. uninstalling through control panel, going into safe mode and using driver sweeper, then installing again through normal mode).
