Well these drivers got crysis running with sli in x64 which is great, but also gave me that sound problem alot of people are having.

Initially was using 169.09 drivers then updated to these 169.25 ones.What is the sound problem?

The problem is when i run crysis now there is crackling and popping then the sound would stop all together for a min or so then start crackling again. The thing is it only does it when run in sli mode. when Using a single gpu the sound works perfect.
A similar sound problem can be found in oblivion when run in AFR SLI but not when run in SFR SLI mode or single gpu.
Which leads me to my question...Could this problem have something to do with the fact that both my graphics cards and the sound cards use the same IRQ?

I haven't heard of IRQ-sharing problems in a long time.
The more likely culprit is that your PCIe graphics cards are hogging the PCI bus.
I've heard raising the sound buffer size helps. Or adjust your latency?

Anyone here have any success in using the new 169.25’s with Vista 64 and FSX/DirectX 10?
I just did a clean install of Vista Ultimate 64 with the SP1/RC and the new 169.25 drivers. With FSX/SP2 I get a crash after about five minutes of game play with an error that says the Nvidia driver is not responding. This only happens in DirectX 10 Preview mode. With DirectX 9 I have no problems.
Running Crysis in DirectX 10 does not cause this problem it only seems to be with FSX.
