Nvidia drivers keep crashing on windows 8

[Malki_m92]

Hey,
I have a problem with windows 8 and Nvidia drivers. Whenever I'm using Autodesk Autocad or IE10, the drivers keep on crashing. sometimes its just a black screen for 5-10 seconds and then restores back and says nvidia drivers have stopped responding, some other times it just freezes and i cant do anything. It doesn't do so with games or any other programs. I had windows 7 before and never encountered such a problem, but its been happening since i got windows 8. Oh, and before getting windows 8, I had flashed my bios to the latest version, didn't encounter any errors with it, just thought i'd post it here incase it has something to do with it. I have updated Nvidia drivers many times, but to no avail. Any help is appreciated, Thanks.

Hardware:
i5-2500K
Nvidia EVGA GTX 560 SC
Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3
G.SKILL Ripjaws 2x4GB DDR3

Nvidia Drivers Version 331.65

Have you tried using older drivers? Such as the ones that you used with Windows 7. Perhaps the newer drivers just have a bug with those specific programs. Stranger things have happened! (And are you clean installing the drivers?)

I will try using the older drivers today. Yes, I always do a clean insall.

For what it's worth, I've been having the same problem during normal web browsing. I've downgraded to 310.70, but the "stopped responding" error persists..
