Drivers for Nvidia 660 OEM for X51?

Yes it's Windows 7 64-bit.

i havnt tested it as at work will do when i get home

If the driver doesn't work for you please post your Device Instance Path for your 660 and I'll get you fixed up, to find out how to find the path read post #5 in this thread.

exellent good work - for future what did you change

Whoops, here's a link:   www.dell.com/.../alienware-x51

Do they have FTP? or can you host on another link

I get the same.  If it was me I would learn what Sajin is doing because someday Dell wil not support it. Just a thought.

I actually know what needs to be done having already done it many times ;-) but I want these OEM divers so I can figure out how to make any 600 series desktop card work fully with Optimus on the X51 then we will have fully working systems without having to put up with Dell's shoddy download servers.

They are working on the sever. Just keep trying.

what needs doing then? does Sajai drivers have optimus working with the intel card?

The non-OEM drivers do not copy or set up the DLL extensions needed for the right-click context menu "Run with graphics processor..." - this allows you to quickly from the application icon choose which GPU to use, the Intel or nVidia, or to set its default. At the moment you can only do this by setting/amending the profile in the nVidia control panel. I know Optimus is working, I just would like the extra bit - if you have something like the 670GTX you can enable the menu in the control panel but it doesn't appear.

Now once I get hold of the new Dell 660 driver I can see what that does and amend the nVidia v306 drivers to do the same - I thought about using the Dell 555 card drivers but I can't be certain it's the same for the 600 series so thought it best to wait.

Another peice of advice and you can take this one to the bank. Do not buy any GPU from an OEM like Dell that is not reference design because of driver support. If it's not reference the Nvidia or AMD drivers will not install. Sooner or later someone will release a game that you want to play but you wil need a new driver for it. Dell wil not have that driver. If Dell stops selling the GTX 660 in 4 months ( random numbers to make a point ) then they will also stop supporting it with drivers.

Looks like they do: ftp://ftp.dell.com/FOLDER00547772M/6/GFX_A00_301.42_VHXPX_Setup_ZPE.exe

For pete's sake Dell, get your act together - why not make these links available in case of issues with your website?!
