Ive found problems with any driver newer than 372.20

My other PC with 3x GTX 1060 is running perfect with 384.xx driver from several months since I did last update this last July or June don't remember. Why does Nvidia have to screw up this badly with the newest drivers ? If you see their publishing rate ,it is astonishing fast for a new driver to come out. It used to be not like this in the good old days. Nvidia mining rigs(at least for me) used to be super stable never having a crash for several months until Windows 10 forced me to update and also Nvidia publishing lots of new drivers.

I am having this problem only specifically when mining Zcash, the temperature in the excavator miner shows -3 watt. Also this problem is only related to GTX 1050 ti cards as for GTX 1060 it works normal. Sometimes it even shows the TDR Video Failure on Biostar Pro Btc. In fact in Pro BTC motherboard I have only made it to work to mine using ccminer from tprivot and I am mining Lyra2rev only. It crashes in Zcash and Ethereum totally just a few minutes after this. All PCIE slots put to Gen1, latest Windows 1709 and latest Nvidia driver.

Also in EBWF Zcash miner shows the sol/s but shows 0 watt and 0 as temperature with this driver regarding the 1050 ti. 1050 ti are 1 Gigabyte single fan and 2 MSI dual fan

Is anyone having this kind of problem or it is just me ?

I am using Nicehash as you should have understood from me mentioning excavator miner, a proprietary miner of Nicehash I believe.
