Downgrading the NVIDIA graphics driver to an earlier version should work, however they are pushing out the newer version on Windows update, so as soon as you downgrade, Windows 8 might be helpfully upgrading it again for you.

As I mentioned in a previous post, I did roll back my drivers and it didn't fix the issue (and I didn't mention that I also got hold of an even older driver that would install, but also didn't work). I also have my auto update switched off and windows didn't automatically update my driver. And as far as I have seen, there hasn't been one person that said rolling back their drivers worked (the only ones were random where people have claimed to do the same thing 5 or 6 times where suddenly it worked, but most people clearly can't replicate this)

Also I don't want to be one of those annoying whingers, but the only reason I haven't posted another reply until now was that I was getting annoyed with this whole situation, so I was waiting in the hope a solution would soon appear. It is clear that most people are having the exact same problem, so if it were my business and I was handling the problem I would at least put up a statement telling everyone that I was aware of the problem and that there unfortunately doesn't seem to be a quick fix, and then I would tell people we were working on a solution and give them a rough date by which we would have either a solution to the problem, or at least more information. Anyway, just saying that that is what I would do
