NVIDIA GeForce FX Go 5650 Driver (Confused, please help :()

[Guest Riou G]

Hello!

Allright, well, I tried to find the latest driver compatible with my graphics card and I was happy when I saw a post where a guy said he is using the 167.58 driver and getting nice results (on the same gpu I have), so I downloaded that one and did as the installation guides suggest, but then it said that the gpu is not supported (yes, even after replacing the .inf), that was using the have disk method.

Then I tried just using the "setup.exe" and it said my processor needs to be x64 (it is x86 as far as I know).

I would really like to have an updated driver for that card and I would really appreciate your help.

I will post some info here, it may help you help me:

make sure you download the 32bit driver?

[Guest Riou G]

Thanks for the fast reply!

I am downloading this one right now: http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/index....t=0&start=0

Also, here is the link where "wongojack" said that it is working for him: http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/index....345&hl=5650 (second last reply)

I will edit this post when I try it...

[Guest Riou G]

Allright, it works! And it even improved FPS on a certain game I'm trying to run!

I did experience some weird split-second black screens or a flicker of some kind, and dark screen at startup (goes back to normal after a minute though) but it seems to have gone away now.

Thanks for your help, and I hope I can ask again if I have any problems :)

[Guest Riou G]

Aww, I just got a quick black screen split second flicker (don't know how to call it xD) again... hmm...... should I try a different driver version?

[Guest Riou G]

Changed some settings here and there and the flickering seems to have stopped... I will let you know if bad things happen again :)

[Guest Riou G]

I'm having problems playing DotA properly with this driver :)

Might be because it is an old game?

Anyways.. I will try some other drivers...

[Guest Riou G]

I feel like I'm having a monologue here, but at least it might help some people that have the same graphic card xD

I just installed the DESKTOP 169.61 driver with modded .inf and it works PERFECTLY for now (had some black flicker after install but its gone now, like the last one I had).

I would do the 169.62 but it doesnt have a modded .inf yet as far as I know.
