Nitsson Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 I have a Sony Vaio laptop with a GT330M GPU, and I'm about to do a fresh install of Windows 7 x64. Been a good while since last (probably a year), so I'm wondering what driver version I should use. I currently have 196.75 which is a little old and the vanilla drivers from Nvidia are obviously not compatible. I previously used the instructions here, but those links no longer work. Any ideas what driver / inf I should use? I don't need the absolutely latest and greatest, just something fresh. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ^.^ Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 hi i have a vaio with gt 330m as well :) currently i am using 280.26 and it is working perfectly. i can play the latest games such as rage without any problems. but since your model is vpccw2s1e i do not know if the results will be the same. (i use a vpccw26fg) go to this topic : http://forums.laptop...a-oem-notebook/ 1 then download the driver 2 then download the inf modified (it's just one file nvwi.inf) 3 after download run the driver exe (it will extract contents to c:\nvidia) 4 go to C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\280.26\WinVista_Win7_64\International\Display.Driver 5 paste the downloaded nvwi.inf inside and replace the old one 6 run the setup exe again and it should work :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cliff Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Wow you can play Rage on a 330m? I have a 335m and thought it wouldn't cut it. Good news! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
