I resent installed 181.20 driver... but whenever I ran a CUDA WU, my system crashed...after 2 day I decided to uninstall and re-install 180.48, and have since not had anymore crashes.

Has anyone experienced with the latest driver...?

The reason your card crashed probably had notihing to do with the drvier you used. You just happend to get a string of Very Low Angle Range, or VLAR tasks (0.1 or lower angle range), and like everyone else that gets them, the card acted up.

If you use the batch file posted in the threads like this example you can advert them before running them, and save yourself the headache.
