Default Do 182.xx drivers work on windows 7?

I'm just wondering if anyone knows for sure if the 182.xx drivers work on windows 7. I used to run the 182.08 on my gtx 260 when I had it in my vista rig, but now that I moved the card to a w7 rig, I switched to the 190.xx drivers.

The rig that it's in right now is basically folding 24/7. I have noticed that the card EUE's a lot now and it never did when it was on the older drivers. I even have the clocks a lot lower than I did before. Previously I had it at 783/1674/1296 and now it's something like 600/1566/1100. The temp is a few degrees higher now, but it's still under water and loads around 45°c.

I want go back to the old drivers, but I'm not sure if they work well with w7.

Most vista drivers should work in Windows 7,

Give them a shot.
