Unstable Nvidia Drivers from version 358.50 upwards (GTX 680 Win7)

Is it ZoS fault or Nvidias fault, that all newer drivers are unstable? Did anyone know about this problem and got more information?
I would really get a new Driver, when a new game is released that i like to play...

    So are you saying 355.82 is the last stable driver for ESO? Or 355.98?

    I tested a bunch of NVidia drivers too, and concluded 355.82 is the last stable driver (GTX-670).
    I'd say its interesting if we both came to the same results.

    I totally agree about not being able to utilize the latest nvidia driver support/features.

    The last stable driver is 355.98 , atleast for me with a GTX-680. However i need underclock the GPU, but then everthing runs fine (one crash after 4-6 hours seems normal).

    The drivers version 385.50 and upwards, cause CTD's at the character selection screen. If i get lucky, i can login but after ~ 15min i got another CTD (CTD is forced through a reset of the driver)

    I keep trying all the latest drivers on my GTX 660 and the last one that works is 355.98. All the rest cause the game to freeze. There also seems to be no way to report the issue to Nvidia.

    My gtx 670 was a nightmare with severe fps drops. Luckily the Windows 10 update is free and fixed my problems

    Correction I use gtx 760.

    I have this same issue. If I install 385.98 driver game runs fine. If I install the latest Nvidia driver then instant crashes on character selection screen or 5-10 mins into the game

    There must be something that can be done about this - I'm not going to use an old driver just for this game.
