Heck, for like $50 used an 8800GT would be money well spent I'd say.

I do not think I will be trying them. Maybe this is just my experience, but whenever I have installed any version of the 190 drivers. My COD4 crashes with a PB.dll error. I fall back to 182's and play all night with no problems.

I agree with Perinum, although I would have to say Punkbuster usually only comes in effect when I keep getting booted from multiplayer server, coz' of punkbuster being an older version.. But again PB.dll really sound like punkbuster, try updating and it see if it helps..

Yeah I tried the PB update. Was the first thing I tried, among many other suggestions on other forums. Only thing that worked...was rolling back the video drivers. Just a little unlucky I guess.
