Mortinator Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I accidentally uninstalled my driver and the Microsoft Operating system reverted my display to a standard VGA driver. I tried installing any drivers (in the safe mode as well) and they say "could not locate drivers". Then a guy told me that laptopvideo2go hosts desktop display drivers, which are modified to install on a notebook and i cannot just download any drivers. I am not sure which one to download for my system. I play Age of Conan , WoW , CS:Source... Can anyone recommend me a driver for my laptop? My Laptop (Clevo M570RU) Spec: IntelĀ® Core2 Duo CPU T7700 @ 2.40 Ghz (2 CPus) Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX Windows Vista Ultimate (64 bit) Thank you VERY much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Marley Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I would recommend either 177.35 or 175.16. Just make sure you read the Quickstart Guide and use the Modded INF. It should work just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Marley Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Mainly just increases in speed (with the higher versions) and support for new cards. Some people have trouble with the 177.xx drivers, though, so if you do I would try 175.16, which is actually the latest stable driver from nvidia for which we have a working modded INF.

If done right you will find the bios file v1.00.08 in with the flashcd.iso file as shown in the last Screen Shot. To Burn the disk select tools => burn CD/DVD image" so do i need a cd to burn those files or ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dox Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 yes or use a dvd like i did. there isn another way to flash bios wihtout using a cd or floppy disk (by using usb instead) but i havent tested the other methods. only attempt to update the video bios if your card downclocks using non stock drivers i.e 167.44 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mortinator Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 (edited) i think ill download it anyways since my BIOS driver is 1.00.07 , probably i can play better with the new version (what harm can it do anyways). So i have to get a blank dvd-r then ... Edited June 28, 2008 by Mortinator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
