I didn't expect them so fast after I posted a topic about them coming soon .
But Is there a change-log for these drivers. I want to see what the differences are compared to the 175.75 drivers.
I'll download them and will comment back on them later.

Yeah, thanks a lot. Downloading now, will test and report later. So far the 175.75 were good both on Vista x32 and Vista x64 (I've gone to 64bit now after hardware upgrade, so I'll be testing only the 64bit drivers from now on).

Weird one. I can enable SLi through nv control panel as usual but games refuse to run in SLi mode at all? (XP32) Back to 175.16 I guess

After installing the drivers, do not change anything (resolution)... just reboot your pc right away, that should help to avoid that issue

This driver is similar to the 175.75's performance-wise on my system(Vista x64 + SP1), no bugs so far on GRID, Crysis and The Witcher (these are the only games which I currently have installed), so I'll keep em. The DV is working too.

I don't change a thing, as soon as the drivers are installed it says it needs to reboot, so i say go on then, and then it boots up in the 800x600 VGA 4bit colour mode thing that i can't change. 
I may have found a fix though (depends when i can be bothered to try it though actually ), as when i went and removed these drivers to go back, i forgot to run DriverSweeper before starting to install the .63's, so when they started installing, i got the old the file xxxx im trying to replace, is newer than the one im trying to replace with, do i still want to replace with the older file, so seen as i never DriverSweeped i just said no (as i was going to start again), got that on another 2 files (which i also said no to), so once it had installed the .63's, it rebooted to the same 800x600 4bit colour that i couldn't change, so i rekon the problem is 1x of those files, so i guess all i got to do, is do the same again without the DriverSweep, make a note of those 3x files, then replace them one at a time with the same files from the .63's, so i can find out which one of them is the one that sticks me in the 800x600 4bit.

The files asked to be overwritten are the most nessesary parts of the driver, by the way.
So just uninstall the current driver with the software-panel, restart, install new drivers, restart again and you will be done.

SLI is broken for me with 175.16 whql 
I can enable it but I don't get any performance increase...
That's why I tried the 175.70, but I can't enable SLI with them lol
Then 175.75 crashed my PC after 20s of any 3D applications.
So now those 175.80 are scaring me... dunno what new glitch / crash I'll get 
I'm starting to think about reinstalling the almighty 174.12
