It had also, always been my experience to perform "download the latest drivers" whenever there seemed to be a software/hardware issue. But the advice I got, and tried to pass along, was regarding ATI drivers, and this changed somewhere along the way. ATI being taken over by AMD, or something to that effect. If someone reading this goes to 10.5.8, I believe it stands: it is suggested that you should stay with the Apple supplied drivers.
