FWIW here is the response I received from what nVidia laughingly describes as "Customer Care":-
"Hello, Thank you for contacting NVIDIA Customer Care. This problem has already been reported to NVIDIA Engineering (as you know) and is under investigation. Please check for the fix in a future driver. Unfortunately there is currently no schedule I can provide. Let me know if any more questions. Best regards, Mike NVIDIA Customer Care So there you have it folks - nVidia Customer Care that is about as much use as a chocolate teapot! Something one should definitely bear in mind next time one purchases any computer hardware, methinks. Pretty poor show IMHO.
