Default Video Driver Crash, then BSoD.

I have had Vista installed on my PC for about 3 months, all been working perfectly fine, enjoying my nice DX10 etc. Latest nVidia driver update, is causing carnage to it, i'll be playing a game, I played it for about 6 hours, with no problems then my video driver crashed about 10 times straight after each other, and recovering after about 10 times, it blue screened.

What should I do, roll back to previous drivers, or install BETA drivers?

Temperatures all look fine, (This is underload)
60oC for the graphics card, (8800GTS 320mb)
40oC for CPU, (E6400)
35oC for Mobo (Some AsRock one)
37oC for Harddrive (Maxtor)

Possibly been a windows update too, i'm not sure.

Alternatively you can go download Driver Cleaner pro.

1. Through Device manager, Uninstall your current drivers for the card.
2. Run Driver cleaner pro and Select "Nvdia", let it run its course
3. Restart and install proper drivers from the cards manufactures site.
