They come out at the same time.

Installed 181.22 and seem to be running fine. I noticed SLI enables quicker now, too (the same speed it enables in Windows 7). Usually, when enabling SLI on Vista, the Nvidia Control Panel would freeze for a few seconds and then enable it, but now it does it instantly.
