I upgraded to this driver today and wish I hadn't. I dont get the mad flicker you mentioned but do I get (and this is girly tech talk here.....) lots of spikey bits sticking out of things.
I had this problem before after upgrading my drivers and I always went back to an older version to fix it, but that hasn't worked this time. I think the problem is something to do with drawing the polygons but I get long spikey bits running across my screen from objects and its quite wierd to look at.
Is this a known problem with Nvidia (I have a GEForce 7600 GS) and am not technically minded in the slightest as you can gather from this post. I just like to log in and have everything work perfectly - WHY the heck I bought a PC I will never understand.
Any ideas on this? and please dont tell me to go back to sewing and knitting
