Best nvidia drivers

I have to use a G80 8800GTS 320mb until newegg decides to process my 4850X2 order.. Last time I went with nvidia left 4 dead always crashed with 180-181 drivers.. I was thinking of trying the 185 beta's, what do you guys think?

Xp or Vista or W7?

With XP SP3 185.66 crashed my system and 185.68 caused a weird conflict with a couple of USB ports (keyboard and mouse)

If you load 185.68 and this happens just swap over your kb and mouse (if they are usb) to other ports and all should be fine.

I have tested 185.68 beta with crysis, empire total war, gta iv and wolfenstein enemy territory.... all rock solid so far...

Yea I had to get 181 since I'm in 7... Dammit, I hope L4D doesn't crash every 20 minutes like my old 280 did. But then again, that was on Vista so the 7's could be better.
