I'm not entirely sure which video card you're using, but from my experience (eVGA GeForce 8800GT), the 190.62 drivers have been the most stable for me. Everything that I've read up on nZone has said that anything newer than that (including the latest WHQL) has been causing cards to overheat and/or die. So I've stuck to those drivers, and have been good since.

The over heating issues are caused by the drivers not throttling the fan/s up propperly while the GPU is underload and heating up. it can be avoided by downloading NVIDIA System Tools with ESA Support from Nvidia, then openning the nvidia control panel and setting the fans to a higher percentage using 'manual control' under device settings.

 

side note last i checked Nhancer doesn't support the 200 level drivers yet, so nhancer users need to stick with the 19's
