Nvidia driver problem

The Nvidia driver distributed with Vista RTM (32-bit) worked perfectly. I
think it was 96.86. Yesterday I downloaded the newest version (97.46, WDDM)
from Windows Update only to find nothing but flickering diagonal purple
lines on the screen this morning. CTRL-ALT-DEL changed the lines to green,
but I couldn't get into the task manager or do anything else and was forced
to restart the machine. Restart was normal escept for the "safe mode"
prompt.

My graphics card is an XFX 7900GT; Motherboard: A8N32SLI. CPU: AMD 4800+.

Any suggestions welcome -- I'm hoping not to have to revert as the new
driver gives slightly higher benchmark scores.
