"nvidia driver has stopped working and has recovered" finally resolved?

[Rjel]

My system has been plagued by the "nVidia display driver has stopped working and has recovered" message for most of the last year. Many many driver re-installs and web searches for answers haven't made any improvements. Like most peoples' experiences, it seems my crashes are random and not connected with a particular program or game. I missed the below Win7 update from October 2012. I installed it last night and then ran IL-2 for about 10 hours without a driver crash. I'm cautiously optimistic that maybe this has fixed my problem at last. I'm interested if anyone else has found this to be the case?
