Recent random crashes seemingly from acquiring latest video drivers...

from Demigod Forums

So today I downloaded and installed the latest graphics drivers for my Nvidia 8800 Ultra which were released on June 17, 2009.  I periodically update my drivers, as all gamers should.  However, today I've experienced like 3 crashes to desktop in a row, all of which bring up the debugger with the following error message.  Now, it could be a coindidence, but I've never gotten so many crashes in such a short span of time before.  Random crashes have occured for me before, but extremely few and far between (maybe once every 20 games, literally).  Also, I whenever I have randomly crashed before, the error message THEN was not the one I am posting NOW.  Perhaps the new patch will fix some bad code?  Any insight, Stardock?

Well, I re-installed the drivers from May, 2009 and have had zero problems.  No more crash-fest.  How in the world could new drivers affect this game so negatively?  I mean, I understand the drivers are brand spankin' new (they released June 18th, 2009), but how does that cause compatibility issues?  This is the first time I've ever had to revert BACK to old drivers.  By the way, my card is an Nvidia 8800 Ultra.
