conceptfury Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 Hi, I am an owner of two ASUS G1 with the following specifications, Intel Core 2 Duo T7200 2GB DDR2 RAM 667 nVidia GeForce Go 7700 w/ 512MB Running OEM Windows Vista Ultimate and an earlier release with Vista Home Premium My questions is... Can I upgrade my graphics card?? or not... Can anyone point me to the direction of a good video driver for it? also overclocking abilities too? I have been reading this forum for a little over 2 weeks now, and I seem to be unable to find anything. It seems to me that the nVidia GeForce Go 7700 have very much been left out, I only find 7600, 7800, 7900. Even on nVidia's own website, information on the 7700 is very little, maybe it is a less common card? Any help is greatly appreciated, also some guidelines on how far to go with stable overclocking would be great too. Thanks in advance! Jackson.

Ice-Tea Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 Hi Jackson, I don't know about the G1.. I never saw the internals of the notebook, so I don't know if it is based on MXM or not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I'm about to get my g1 and i'm already searching for drivers, i agree that it seems to be really hard to find drivers for the go 7700. Why.. i don't really know, seems to me that the computer makers, i.e. asus in this case are slacking with the drivers. I will probably run vista 64-bit and xp 32-bit incase some apps/games won't run. Anyway.. the one driver i found that may work is here.. http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1530 it's a beta driver however I find guru3d to do pretty reliable drivers and it's a forceware driver so i would atleast give a try. Good luck with the searching. Also pls post if you try the driver and tell us the results!? Regards Sebastain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 Also found Vista 64-bit drivers here: http://files.aoaforums.com/I2754-9754_vista64.exe.html (TweaksRus) //Sebastian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasapi Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 *Note: I posted this at http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread...014#post2650014 **Not sure if it's ok to post regarding another but I hope this helps. What's up guys. Since I know how tough it is to get info about this video card, I just wanted to share which setup worked best for me. I use ATI tool to overclock. As for my video driver, I use Extreme-G MobileForce. You can't go wrong with this driver. It will boost your video card's performance by a lot. Since this is my first post I don't know how the resizing works for picture but here's my benchmark for 3DMARK06.

Guest Poussin60 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Intel Core 2 Duo T72002GB DDR2 RAM 667 nVidia GeForce Go 7700 w/ 512MB Running OEM Windows Vista Ultimate and an earlier release with Vista Home Premium Hi I'm looking for a new laptop to buy, and one of those I found is similar to yours (except it runs Win XP Pro). I'm wondering if the GeForce Go 7700 w/ 512MB (ASUS) is better (or not) than a GeForce 8600M GT 256Mo (ASUS too) to play recent and heavy games such as FEAR, Bioshock, NFS or Crysis (NB : for this one I don't expect a good detail level with such graphics cards). I read e.g. that Bioshock needs DX10 whereas the Go 7700 doesn't support it. Is that true ? Thx for your advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ed Oscuro Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Bioshock doesn't require DX10, but will utilize it for some features (the demo says certain details are DX-10 only, and DX-10 should probably give it a small performance increase as well).

Odai Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 (edited) Hi there, Ive got Asus A8JS and it has the same Geforce GO 7700 on XP... and I reallly can't find any Drivers that would would work. Has any1 had any luck finding anything compatible or is it a lost hope? Edited July 25, 2008 by Odai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ben Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Go to Asus Website.. http://support.asus.com/download/download....SLanguage=en-us You need to narrow the selection to Notebook , A8 series, A8JS model. Then select VGA. The driver seems to be made by NVidia... I have been using it for 2 years now on my A8JS with XP Pro. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest James Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Asus provides a full set of WinXP drivers for the G1 model. Just go to their website and download them all. http://support.asus.com/download/download....SLanguage=en-us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
