Mx-Josh, it would help to know what video card you're using. I'm not aware of anything where you'd want to be running old drivers right now.

New ATI drivers seem to have bugs about half the time, so be ready to revert back when you're upgrading the drivers for an ATI card. The latest 10.3 drivers seem to be good.

NVIDIA always has solid drivers in my experience.

Intel's drivers generally aren't very good, but I'm not aware of a case where the older drivers are better than the newer drivers with Intel. They are notorious for advertising extensions which don't actually work, which is one of the main reasons why software developers are always complaining about them.

I see you got it sorted out in the other thread. But I wanted to point out that the Microsoft drivers are not accelerated. If you see Microsoft in the driver info it means you need the get the real drivers from the GPU vendor.
