Like Jim said, always UNINSTALL drivers before putting new ones in.
Also, check the cooling. Download a utility that will monitor the temperature of your GPU (nVidia should have this built into their drivers, IIRC), and check it out. What you describe could be overheating, or damage from overheating. It could also be poor drivers, or even just a defective card. Hard to say really.
Unfortunately, just about all tech support is is a process of elimination.
