Yulan Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 (edited) Hi, I am trying to update my Vostro 3700 with the latest Nvidia drivers but I've stumbled into an issue. My laptop is a "hybrid" so I need to modify some files with my hardware ID in order to force the installer to detect my card. With most recent driver versions, however, some codes have change and I don't know how to proceed: This is how my current hardware ID looks like in my current nvam.inf (version 295.73): NVIDIA_DEV.0A29.01 = “NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M And this is how the IDs in nvam.inf looks like in current drivers: NVIDIA_DEV.0654.14D2.1043 = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 320M Also, old structure: %NVIDIA_DEV.0A35.06% = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0A35&SUBSYS_1F171043 New: %NVIDIA_DEV.0A35.1F17.1043% = Section070, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0A35&SUBSYS_1F171043 It seems like a lot of info has been added to these strings. If I simply put my old ID the driver keeps saying that I don't have a compatible hardware, so my question is how can I find these infos in order to proceed with the update.
