I ran them last night without issue.

so do you recommend them?

maybe fewer artifacts in bf2, they were rare before,
otherwise no noticable difference
No idea what (if anything) they were supposed to change though.

Tommy, in EA's latest update they said everyone should update to these new drivers.

I tried these. I still get VPU lockups after a few minutes of play, I go back to 5.1 and all is good! I have a AIW 9600Pro.
