nVidia doesn't state that their installation routine doesn't do anything
specific per video card detected either Unified could mean 'packaged in
one big download which is sorted out on installation' or supply all files
(bloatware) and only use those that are needed by the system. I'd go with
the full uninstall/remove card/install latest drivers just to be sure

Do, i had no end of problems with me 6800gt when i upgraded from a 5700le
and assumed the same drivers would be fine. crashes aplenty and crappy
performance. Put the 5700le back in and did the safe procedure, works like a
dream now

Download latest stable drivers, uninstall old ones, turn off, replace
card, turn on, install drivers

This is the safe procedure of course. But since nvidia uses 'unified
drivers' uninstallation shouldn't be necessary.

In any case, I'm using the 67.66 drivers (www.guru3d.com) and they
seem
fine.
