i was going to suggest trying different drivers but you've already done that.....

did you use something like driver cleaner after removing the old driver suite and before installing the new one? i've had problems in the past with games that were only solved after using driver cleaner.

driver cleaner is no longer free ... but driver sweeper from the guys at guru 3d is. seems to pretty much the same type of app.

Guru3D - Driver Sweeper

rather than ramble on i'll leave you to give it a try.....

remove old drivers

reboot in safe mode

run driver sweeper.

reboot normally

install new driver.
