Gtx 295 black screen

I searched the forums and haven't seen anything so I'm asking on here. I have gtx 295 and installed it with the cd drivers and ran COH and got the black screen I tried to dl and install the newest drivers on the nvidia website and the screen went black during install and never finished installing (waited 20 mins) Is there a known driver version that works good with this game and this card?

Couple of questions:

What OS are you using?

What type of connection are you using? VGA : DVI : HDMI : Component : DisplayPort

What resolution are you running at?

Have you tried wiggling your mouse when the screen goes black?

I've got a triple SLI GTS 250 setup that also goes Black Screen just on loading CoH, but wiggling the mouse causes the screen to put up. However, that's on Cedega under Mepis Linux with the.190.32 beta driver, so I don't know if the problem is exactly similar.

It's the drivers I'm running VIsta x64 and DVI connection I installed other drivers that someone was using with the same card they had problems with the drivers but could play so I figured why not use those at least I can get into the game the latest drivers give me the black screen 190.62 now but i get opengl crashes and the game stops responding. But I can at least play the game. Now I would like to try to find some stable drivers and don't really want to install everyone and test until I get it right I was hoping for someone to suggest some that they use with the gtx 295

resolution is 16080x1050
