I'm wondering if Rivatuner 2.06 does in fact support the latest nvidia beta drivers, because I'm getting the same type of crashes that I was getting during the Crysis demo with the 169.01 drivers and Rivatuner 2.05 right now with Rivatuner 2.06 and 169.09. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, anyone has any insight on how to OC properly using these new set of drivers or at least know if it's working at all?

pretty sure rivatuner warns you that the new drivers aren't test

when i upgraded from Rivatuner 2.03 to 2.06 i had some crashes too, so i havent OC'd my card since then however this may work :
Open Rivatuner ----> Power user ----> open RivaTuner\System ----> Click on ForceDriverVersion and put the number of your driver in it (for example if its 169.09 then put 16909 in it ) i did this few days ago but havent tested my OC to see if it will crash or not

Nah doesn't work, but thanks for the help Maz... What I did see while it worked was that fps jumped from 35 (Stock) to 50 (650/1620/950), which is amazing... I guess I'll just have to lower a few settings until nvidia stops slacking off and give me a decent driver...

Yeh Im having a few crashes in COD 4 and 1 crash so far in the full version of Crysis with riva 2.06. Take into account that 169.09 is a beta so nothing is perfect yet. I have my GTS 640 oced as well but really waiting for next month to see whats in store for the successor to the GTX/Ultra cards if any..

I discovered that for some reason my 650/1620/950 OC is "unstable" on Crysis (However worked fine on Jericho for some reason...), and I had to step it down to 621/1566/936 and so far no crashes (From the beginning to the second cutscene of the game). I guess Crysis just cries when the OC is too high.

No problem mate :)
Well with Rivatuner 2.03 i OC'd my card to 630/1100 and it was stable @ that frequency, but when i upgraded to rivatuner 2.06 and 1690.04 (and after than 169.09) it became unstable
