Is this the final word on this subject? I've been suffering with this broken nvidia driver problem for a couple of days now, and I didn't know I should have done something like this. I didn't even know what the protect.d directory was for. What should I do know to roll back to an older nvidia driver so that my machine works until this gets fixed? Thanks for any advice you can offer. BTW, where would I track how and when nvidia is addressing this? http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44 is the only thing I know about. John
