Changed graphics drivers, might have some problems now

I noticed I had slight graphical errors while playing Rome: Total War. Lines would stick up from certain units. So, I decided to change my drivers. I was using the nvidia 61.77 drivers, and switched to nvidia 66.93. After uninstalling the 77's, I ran driver cleaner for nvidia. I got an error saying windows files had been changed or deleted, and I should install my windows cd. I chose to cancel that, and it said I would go ahead using the new files that had been changed. I then installed the 66.93 drivers.

The graphical errors in rome were gone, and games seemed to play fine. But, then I noticed something. My CS:S stress test had lost nearly 40 fps, and I got this-

I don't remember there being large error signs before. :(

So, I switched back to the old 61.77 drivers without using driver cleaner, just uninstalling. I got the 40 fps back, which is good. But, I still get the error signs in the stress test, and the graphical errors are back in rome.

Any help?

Those error signs are for missing models.



Reinstalling/downloading will probably fix this, check some (other - nvidia) forums to see if someone else has the same shit

Those error models are a bug in the stress test introduced in the latest update, I get them too with my ATi.
