I installed the 290.10 using the x86_64 package downloaded off the NVIDIA website. I had no crash ever since. I stressed my system by playing multiple YouTube and Vimeo Flash HD clips in parallel (that used to crash everytime), no problem! If you don't need the latest changes in the drivers, this is a very viable solution!
