Another installment of streamlined, fat free optimised drivers!
This will be my last driver until after the start of summer, I've got too much work going on to keep modding drivers now I'm afraid.
Drivers are newer than 185.20 by build date
So enjoy this release, check out the release notes below.

Internal changes over 181.22
-Fixed install issue for 9400M cards in XP
-Improved quadro driver settings compared to my previous releases (G9x cores only)
-Left nvidia stereovision server into drivers (vista only)

Release Highlights
-Supports all mobile cards from 6-GT100 series and quadro equivalent
-Added numerous OpenGL and DirectX performance and Image quality tweaks
-Options to install for Quality/Balance/Performance driver settings
-Added extra resolutions not found in original set
-Optimised drivers
-Integrated driver settings from 179.48 to help with "normal" functions of your lapotp like sleep, powermanagement, tv out etc (cannot guarantee it will work for all people)

Ditto, thanks a lot for the drivers! It's lame that there'll be no more optimizations till summer, but still, thanks a lot!

balance option works fine and gave me 70 points more on 3dmark06

games work fine (gta4 pes2009 fear2....)

great driver. problem with sleeping mode fixed for me.

but one small problem is still alive for my fx 570m under windows vista 64bit sp1. i'm not able to activate scaling, while me external monitor is active. already tried the enoverscanfix from nvidia with no luck. used original graphic card drivers from fujitsu siemens for my h250 - no luck. tried differnt drivers from this page - no luck. now i'll stay at the dox driver because of the great preformance.

image of the problem i mean: http://img147.images.../scalingmu3.jpg

it would be great if anyone could help me with the scaling problem.

The driver works fine until now.
In GTA4 I get very wiered water reflections, more precise it acts as if it is a huge mirror bouncing around on the entire water surface. It wasn't there with the 181.22 drivers.
I am have an 9800M GTX and using balance settings.
