Guest PresenceOfMind Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 I finally have replaced my official dell driver for a LaptopToGo 178.13 driver on my M1730 (Geforce 8800MGTX SLI ). It is awesome. Very good performance. No graphics failures or artefacts. No restarting when changing video settings. And It feels like running at lower temperature with everything on max. WOW perfect, Crysis rocks, Perfect World on MAX, Battlefield Vietnam and Battlefield2 spot on. Bioshock show (this is the best game ever). Excelente job guys. BTW I had to modify the INF file to get this installed. One last thing. Is it better to keep the Powermizer on or off? Safer? Best performance? Welldone :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wulfe Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 if you want best the performance you could turn off powermizer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnzoMatrix Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 HiI don't know why but nvidia system tool doesn't work, and I don't have power mizer..any solution? I finally replaced my OEM driver on my notebook with this 178.13 and I am very happy with the results, for the most part. As far as the System tool; I was never able to get that to run with the OEM driver, but last night I installed System Tool with this driver and it WORKS! So, I am lost why it won't work for someone else. I am having one problem with this driver, it 'seems' that my desktop applications (IE, Explorer, etc..) run slower and my boot is slower too. Other than that, this driver is a great improvement over the 174.25 OEM driver that HP has on thier web site. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffer Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Once again, no problems... everything is there and everything is working :) Can't really see much of an increase in performance but nonetheless it's nothing to complain about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 I got a strange problem with this driver, when I OC my gpu core clock to 588-620, the hardware monitoring graph (rivatuner) shows that the clock speed is 648 while I'm playing a game. I have a 1520 with a 8600m gt. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening and how to fix it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
