Exclamation Newer nvidia drivers 91.31

I've just done a clean install of this new driver. I deleted everything that had to do with the card before, display and card drivers and reinstalled these new one. I then restarted and everything worked fine. I even got extra fps in fear and i could of played doom 3 at 1600 resolution at just a little less than playable frame rate. It used to lagg more before. Then i finally opened up unreal tournament 2004 and it was starting. Once it opened the screen was all colors. I saw nothing it was all scramble. Then i used the keyboard shortcut to shut the game and my desktop was scrambled as well. I had to shut down by pressing the button. I tried more than once but same thing happens. Has anyone else had problems with this new driver and UT2004? I mean...why would i want to uninstall these new driver if they give higher fps in fear. Is ther a way to fix this?

Thanks for understanding

Did you check the Release Notes for that set of drivers to see if it's a known problem?

Under Minimum requirements for the game DirectX 9.0b is listed, so yes.
Since your problem began with the new drivers and, I presume, goes away when you go back to the old ones your best bet is to give the nVidia driver team a yell.
The nVidia forum Drivers Conference is here : http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showforum=33
