Andrew55 Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 And yet another best 8400m gs driver answer: There are only best drivers for a particular purpose but I guess you can try the 178.24 if you wish. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elemen7al Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Yer sorry i hate asking these questions but i was just about to install them drivers after a bit of reading.

Thanks for the fast reply mate. much appriciated even if i cant spell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
