Have made the transition myelf yesterday on my main machine (with GTX 480), and not had such incidents (yet) but there's still time :) ... Something rings a bell with what you describe though, though I can't place it. Did you use the 'clean install' advanced option ?

Yes, I used the Advanced -> Clean Install option. (I always do ever since NVidia introduced this option...)

I'd suggest if the crashes persist then, on the off chance they don't have all the kinks completely worked out with the Beta driver, indeed go back to a clean install of the last WHQL.
Sometimes, due to the way modern Windows caches drivers for quick boot, simply booting into safe mode then rebooting back into normal mode can clear out some gremlins. It's weird, but works for a few specific issues I can name, that otherwise look like broken hardware/drivers.

I also installed 285.38 yesterday on my GTX560 and have not seen any problems on my end.
Mine was a install over the old version though.

The 100% CPU load problem for multi-GPU systems is still there.
AMD seriously sucks! >:(
