NVidia doesn't do mobile versions too often. So you have to wait until Pieter makes a modified inf for this one.

I'm uploading the driver with the altered inf, I just used 195.81's inf. So use it if you have the cards supported in the inf, I added the files that came with 195.81 but weren't in the 197 package, just to make sure everything installed. All seems good, control panel works and driver installed without a hitch and best of all no bsods, I have yet to test in games though.

here's the inf only http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?jlzh3dknw3w use it if you have;

Sorry for spam, but I get this message when try to install any Nvidia driver update, including 197.13...: "The Nvidia Setup program could not locate any draivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit."

I`m getting depressed about it :)

Is there anything I can do to fix this? I would be very grateful. My video card is GeForce 9 series M. I have ASUS laptop, Windows Vista home premium.

OK, I will. But what should i do with the "inf" file when he makes it? Simply put it to the driver extraction folder or what?
