Did you double check to get the 64-bit drivers, not 32-bit? You should also reboot after installation.

Does your monitor have the x64 driver/profile as well?

Have you uninstalled the installed drivers before installing the new one? What about the PhysX drivers, did you uninstalled this as well?

When you install the drivers, do you do so with Higher Privileges? (Right Click on file and "Run as Administrator?")

I have found that uninstalling both the driver and physX helps me tremendously.
