Guest Andrejus Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Hello. I have problems with my laptop and nvidia drivers. I have Asus G51 and i cannot install any drivers. When i am trying do that i get message: The Nvidia setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit. I tried all drivers. Btw, i have Vista 64bit and sorry for my bad english. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BXF Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 I may as well point out right here and now what should be obvious, but clearly isn't: it's one thing to make it possible to install a driver on a device for which it was not intended, and another thing to make it work properly. Yes, I am aware of the Unified Driver Architecture concept, but if you compare the contents of an expanded laptop driver file to that of a desktop, you'll see that in some areas they are very different in structure. Why is this significant? Because EVERY driver I've tried using a modded INF had a problem whereby my system would occasionally stop responding after resuming from STANDBY. This problem stopped occurring after I installed the Nvidia driver specifically intended for my 8400M G (185.85). Not being a gamer, I have performance-related constraints in choosing my driver. Of course, I wouldn't assume that every user would encounter a problem using the modded INFs, but it's something to keep in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
