[SOLVED]How to downgrade nvidia driver?

Hey All,

So I upgraded (if that's what you call it) the nvidia related drivers this morning and now all my opengl games either don't start or run for about 5 min and completely lock up the computer.

For example, when I launch WOW (CXGames) it will play for about 4 to 5 min and then lock up the computer.

When I try to play something more native, like something on Desura, it won't even start... It blinks, and thats about it. No lock up, but no play either.

How can we downgrade to the known good driver?

Thanks!

Joe
