M4NI4K is on a distinguished road

exclamation 6800Ultra + Omega Drivers = Errors :(

I recently installed the Nvidia Omega drivers for my 6800Ultra. I got really big perfomance increase of it. My framerate has gotten really stable with the drivers installed.
However i have been getting some bugs/errors or whatever you want yo call em. In hitman for instance i get this 3 big black squares in my screen.
I would really like to find a solution for my problem. I tried some other drivers like DHzer0 and XTreme-G but they just dont give me the performance boost and both of them seem to mess up my TV-out.

A solution or fix would be greatly appreciated

EDIT:
I also remembered Windows gave me an error saying that the drivers were ment for a diffrent version of windows even though i downloaded the Windows XP drivers..
I uninstalled all previous display drivers when i installed the omega drivers

Those are really old drivers and probably no good for latest games. Try the DHZeropoint ones or the latest from the nvidia site.

That's probably a conflict between the game and the drivers.
Like Satans Arse said, Omega's nVidia drivers are quite old, so you should try out some newer ones. The DHzp 76.44 set was REALLY awesome for the 6 series, so you should check it out.
