Peremptor Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 I have the same problem as E. Brock. I would have to conclude that these drivers just are not compatible with the gefore go 6100/6150 chipset, no matter how much you modify the .inf file. If there's anyway to get them to work on this chipset can you please let me know? If not what is the latest driver version that works properly with the 6100 chipset? Any help would be appreciated, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Cat Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 (edited) The problem comes in, every time I go to update my drivers, my laptop gets screwy and the screen has lines running through it and then turns black. After install, black screen, but windows don't crashed because it restart (with keyboard) and can login (I ear the sound): I have solved this problem for my GeForce FX Go5700 by deleting the line 947 in the modded INF : HKR,, EnableBrightnessControl,[tab][/tab] %REG_DWORD%, 1 This value seems to be wrong for some graphic cards... :) Edited October 22, 2007 by Black Cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AkshayGenius Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 I don't understand how to install these drivers. I have an acer 5920g with 8600 gt, I downloaded the driver and the modded inf to one directory. Where am I supposed to extract these files? I know this may sound noobish but, where do I extract the files? And could you please tell me whether this is the best driver available for 5920g? It doesn't seem like 167.26 is stable, so I'm trying this out. Thanx, Akshay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AkshayGenius Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Okay, screw me. I just acted plain stupid. Sorry about that. I got it installed using the modded INF, and haven't really noticed much of a difference. But, when I go to the nVidia contol panel, and see my system properties, it says I have forceware version 101.9, but i just installed 163.75, and restarted it, shouldn't it be showing 163.75? Any body knows what could be causing this? Thanx, Akshay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest UndaC Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Hmm still the old inf?

spaulr Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 (edited) I just attempted to upgrade from v163.74 to v163.75 for the Timeshift demo. After doing this, v5.05 of ntune now always reports 199Mhz for GPU and bus speeds. Previously, with version 163.74 it was 400Mhz for GPU and 350? Mhz for memory. Attempting to overclock the "stock" setting completely hoses ntune. I've since un-installed ntune and driver v75. Re-installed driver v74 and then re-installed ntune. For some reason now I can't get ntune over/underclocking to work properly with v74. I own an Asus A8js with a go7700. Any ideas?

spaulr Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Just found out that timeshift demo installed DX10 without my consent. Bioshock runs like s!@T now. Attempting to roll back to 9.0c. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cain Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 MASSIVE PERFORMANCE BOOST FOR MY 8600MGT at least coming from 165.01. Only found one problem: There is something wrong with the drivers when it comes to powersaving on either the cards clock speeds or the PCI-E bus speed. Even with my laptop plugged into the wall, powersave mode is activated uncontrollably, even if High Performance is selected for your power options. When laptop battery is at 97%+ or is fully charged and plugged in, performance from the card returns after a reboot. I also get the performance back by driver reinstallation. It is a pain in the arse obviously to keep reinstalling. Games Tested With These Drivers: Counter-Strike Source: 1280 x 760 (16:10) with 2x AA, 2x AF, High Detail Settings, No HDR. FPS ~ 70-135 (On average, usually over a hundred on all maps) World of Warcraft: 1650 x 1080 (16:10) with 2x AA (24-Bit Depth, 24-Bit Color 2x Multisampling), Half of the Antisoptric Filtering (2x?), High Detail, Half Terrain Distance, VSYNC On FPS ~ 40-65 (On average, usually about 45 FPS even with Weather Settings maxed and Full Screen Glow activated.) For those wanting to overclock or underclock your GPU, officially (as far as I have found on my ASUS) nTune and Rivatuner can read the 8600M GT that has 128/256 MB DDR3 Embedded. I can overclock mine for a fact. You can get the very latest in overclocking tools at Guru3d.com Heads Up: This is the actual base speeds for both GT and GS. The GT HAS LOWER speeds than the GS. Does not mean a performance gain from the GS though, infact the GS doesn't overlock well without overheating. I have overclocked the GT to roughly 550 / 775 but I do tend to get worried about the excess heat involved and the fan sounds like it starts to struggle so I normally turn it back down to default settings. 8600M GT Core Speed: 475-500 MHz / 700-725 MHz Memory (x2 since its dual channel.) 8600M GS Core Speed: 525-575 / 650-750 MHz Memory (x2 since its dual channel.)

Guest Guest Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Just found out that timeshift demo installed DX10 without my consent. Bioshock runs like s!@T now. Attempting to roll back to 9.0c. vista comes with DX10 built-in BTW, has anyone tried UT3demo with this driver? It boosts UT3demo performance quite a lot but I encountered some occasional soft lock up just wonder if that was my system only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spaulr Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 "vista comes with DX10 built-in" Thanks, I found that out later last night. However, I've narrowed my problems down to the timeshift demo. It DID update something in Direct X. Bioshock is now unplayable with ver 44, 74, 75 drivers. It is so laggy that it's a joke. nTune monitor ALWAYS shows 199mhz for core and memory speeds. I used to be able to run Bioshock with all bioshock settings at high, vsync off. No problem. PS- I did a system restore prior to the timeshift demo install. This didn't work either. I've rolled back to the original drivers that the a8js came with. No dice. Anyone have an idea on WTF happened - or better yet how to get things working again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWolfman Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Do these drivers have the "running on battery corruption" for the Dell m1710 7950 GTX? or has that been fixed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtualknight Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Hi there :) I use these drivers and I have been getting crashes with Oblivion while Age of Mythology causes a BSOD as soon as the animations start.

manu08 Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 (edited) Anyone using Vista 32-bit able to get these drivers working on their dv6000 notebook with GeForce Go 6150? Even with the solution Black Cat gave? I mean that solution might work on XP but maybe not on Vista. From the drivers I've tested out, none of the 163.XX drivers work on the dv6000 notebook running Vista 32-bit and the best drivers for the dv6000 IMO go all the way down to 158.XX. Edit: Nvm. I tried it. Didn't work. I'm back to 158.45. They look the be the more stable than any newer than it and give me better performance than any of the drivers before them.

Exalsis Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Hi i was just wondering with the guys that have hp pavilion dv6000 go 6150 which is the best working driver so far ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Hi, all of this worked, however, Windows is rejecting it. It is giving me this: Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available. everything worked and the driver was updated. Anybody know what the problem is? I got a GeForce2 MX 100/200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
