Guest illmatic Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 For those with HP notebooks, use the nvwh.inf file inside the "original_inf(s).zip" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illmatic Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 To add on to this for HP users, delete the nvlt.inf and nvlt.cat in the folder, so you only have nvwh.inf and nvwh.cat So far, these drivers are great for me, Aero is running nicely and no problems thus far.

Guest Aoshi Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Is it safe to use these drivers for my BenQ S41's 8600M GS? I noticed that the drivers are from Lenovo/Nvidia so i'd like to confirm before i switch to these drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smooshieus Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 (edited) These don't seem to support clock scaling (powermizer), unfortunately. If you want both scaling and overclocking the only one I found to do this is so far is 158.45 (on a 8600M GS). See my post about it here. I'm hoping they'll fix up those 160+ drivers to support both of those features soon... Edited September 26, 2007 by Smooshieus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, I've got an HP Pavilion dv9217ea. I've got a Geforce Go 7600. And I want to install thoses drivers 156.65. You said that HP users have to use the original nvwh.inf and .cat and delete other inf (nvlt.inf and .cat). But in this inf (nvwh.inf) there is no mention for Go 7600 ! the Geforce go 7600 (ID=0398) is present only in nv_dispd.inf in the "original_inf(s).zip" and in the modded inf "nvlt.inf". What should I do to have the better choice ? Thank you, ++ Miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tx1119us Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I followed the directions too for my hp tablet with 6150 integrated, and if you use that nvwh.inf it does not show my card, just the 8800 i believe. furthermore if i use the original .inf, my computer fails to boot. This is true for most of the releases, save for most recently, 163.69 all the others get to where windows should have loaded, then sits in a black screen for a whille, reboots, and asks if i want to repair my comp. I have tried all manner of driver cleaners, so it's not that. Should i be using a different .inf? I don't get it, and it's frustrating! Thank you all for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MYXT5000T Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Install 156.65 on my go 7600, run some few old games, benchmark, etc...I find this stable driver good as 156.55...156.65 is keeper for me. also run WEI base score below with 28-30 processess. processor - 4.6 memory - 4.5 <---only single ram, I will upgrade a pair of stick total 2gb should boost some score. graphic - 4.8 <---disabled areo sh*t...who need it ? pffttt gaming graphic 4.8 primary hard disk 4.5 D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaFForD Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 now my FPS has dropped on my Go 7900 GS, I was getting around 60 in CS:CZ and now it is down to around 15.... I think im going to change back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technomancer Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 These don't seem to support clock scaling (powermizer), unfortunately. If you want both scaling and overclocking the only one I found to do this is so far is 158.45 (on a 8600M GS). Works fine 4me (8600M GS too). I used the original nv_dispd.inf from the included zip-archive though, not the modded inf. Maybe you should try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NotHome Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Works for me: quadro nvs 140m on dell latitude running vista business Possibly a little poorer performance than the 163.69 drivers, but too close to tell. Thanks again for the drivers! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gaervern Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Had to install with "have disc" mode and modded inf. Seems to be the most stable driver on my go7900 GS, so far.

pro101 Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Good driver, it fixed the disabled color vibance found in the stock Lenovo driver for the Nvidia FX 570M. I'm coming from the ATI world where you can save profile and assign it a shortcut key. Can it be done with Nvidia panels? (e.g. CTRL + F1 for a given setting, CTRL + F2 for another) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illmatic Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 I think this driver is great also because it's MADE for our Laptops and is a legit CURRENT mobile driver (as of 9/19/07) I really think we should be using this for our cards instead of the latest 16x.xx, I gues eventually they'll release the 16x.xx for us mobile guys soon, hopefully.
