GPL + detonator = GPF every 2nd race

I thought the installation of Detonator drivers was going great. Able to get into GPL at 1024*768 with no problems - the first time. If I retire from the race, then immediately start a new race, I get a GPF every time that crashes back to Windows 98 (directx 6.1). Then I can run GPL again, and the first race will be fine. Second race will crash. This is very repeatable.

As I got a whopping zero % frame rate improvement with the Detonators, going back to 0.48 reference drivers is not great loss. The main reason to try the Detonator was to see if the OpenGL was fixed so that the GPL mirrors would work properly. They do not.

Here is an idea - let's get nvidia to put the drivers under an open source code model so that the drivers can actually improve when they are updated instead of just being different. If the quality of my work was equal to the nvidia software engineers work, I would be fired.
