After much searching and mooching around on other forums, it seems the latest dets have been responsible for hosing quite a few machines.
 
Does this concur with anybody else?

I have just removed the 21.81 Dets.
They were causing me a lot of problems.
Games & applications crashing all over the place, if a game crashed I couldn't attempt to run it again without first re-booting the whole PC.
Check the 'archive' section over at www.nvidia.com and grab the 12.41 drivers - I didn't have a single problem with those before I upgraded and my system is now 100% stable again after their re-installation.

Cool
 
I imaged my XP install with the 21.81 dets, so I spose I can just use the 'rollback feature' to get back to the 12.41's ;-)
