UPDATE 2007-11-02: added DELL and SONY release, repacked & reuploaded. The SONY release comes with a Firmware Update for selected Go cards (use Firmware.exe). A lot of files in the DELL and SONY release differ from the original release (for NVIDIA & LENOVO), so i included the complete drivers for each in a subfolder (you'll see after extraction). Driver is latest available WHQL certified XP driver for SONY as of today!

Latest driver as of today (build only a week ago). Additionally WHQL.

Using it on my Go 7950 GTX (Dell M1710) and works just fine... had a problem with the nHancer initially, but after an uninstall and reinstall the issue got sorted out.

Is this driver optimized for bioshock as the 163.xx-driver range?

Installed on a Sager NP2090, fresh install of Vista...I'm getting a Vista Experience Index of 1.0, even though Aero was enabled.

Haven't tested elsewhere yet, but is that normal for drivers from this site?

I'm surprised you manage to install an XP driver on a Vista OS. I was expecting a BSOD. Well, the drivers here only reduce lag for Bioshock, but only slightly (just makes it more playable at low settings). It still isn't optimized for Bioshock yet. Wonder when will a 163.xx driver would be released for laptops.

I'm using a 7950gtx in an Alienware m7700.

I finally took the plunge and, once I figured out how quick and easy it is, tried about 10 of the more recent drivers.

This is the first one which has let me play Bioshock with everything on at 1680x1050 and with no stuttering, hanging or any other nastiness!

I wholeheartedly recommend it...to anyone with exactly the same spec as me! :)

I see this driver has native support for Quadro FX 570M. I am wondering if anyone has tried it on FX 570M and how it performs comparing with the 163.69/163.71 with a hacked INF? I am running 163.69 on my T61p with a modified INF, but there are a few small bugs and if this driver gives me a similar performance and compatibility, I would like to install it.

I had been screen refresh issues with Artlantis 3D rendering software. I installed this driver and everything worked great!

However I seem to have lost the ability to 'Hibernate'. Is that possibly related to the driver? I tried sevral other fixes, including two MS updates related to hibernation issues, but it only returned when I rolled back this driver.

I am going to try some older and some newer ones, but if anyone has a suggestion I would appreciate it.

Shadow, by any chance did you compare these with the more recent 156.66??

I'm deciding between these 2

I haven't tried any others as this seems to be working quite well. Let me know if you've tried it and prefer it. Maybe then I'll have to give it a go.

I have just recently installed this driver.

It is pretty good.

I tested it with 3dmark06 in comparison with the previous driver,

the score gained 10% from 3957 to 4297 with resolution 1024x768

my card stays with the default setting....

Highly recommended...

I will test it on Cod and Crysis when these games come out. :)
