For the first time in ages I decided to try a new release driver. The demos sounded interesting. Unfortunately all I got was a black screen when Vista loaded the background. "No signal" said the monitor.

Went into safe mode & uninstalled, rebooted & installed the previous 175.19 driver. It black screened at the same point!

Luckily I had set a restore point so I got my working pc back again.

Ah well, back to my usual method - leave the testing & try outs of new drivers to others.
