You can check all drivers by their Release Version here. The higher number indicates more recent driver. You can install any of them, but we have some recommendations as some of them are poor and some of them are generally good drivers.
Do NOT forget there is NO best driver for everything. One is good for games, one is good for video, one fixes some problems while introducing new ones and so on.
In general which series you should use with your card is;
GeForce 7xxx cards - 80 and up.
GeForce 6xxx cards - 70 and up.
GeForce FX (5xxx) cards - 70 and up.
GeForce 4xxx cards - 60 and up.
GeForce 3 cards - 60 and up.
GeForce 2 cards - 60 and up.
Quadro cards - 80 and up.
Latest ones usually work fine with all cards, the list is just for stating you can but should NOT go below recommended series.
Current recommended driver for general use is: 84.25 (32bit XP), 84.25 (64bit XP)
You can check LV2Go Official ForceWare Recommendations thread here.
You can check Bill's Driver Recommendation thread here for the drivers that keep most people happy.
You can also check the Benchmarks Section to check the results of tests with different graphics cards and drivers.
Just keep your Operating System in mind while choosing the driver.

Thats just what they reccomend, personally i use the 84.21 for my desktop 6800 Ultra, i find it to be the most stable, but others may disagree.
For information regarding installing/uninstalling drivers, read the 'Nvidia Drivers Info' thread in my signature.
