Alienware GPU Update!!!
Hi all,
I have an Alienware M17x with a GeForce GTX 460M GPU. I have version 267.xx but I need version 285.xx. Dell does not have this version on their site, and when I go to download the NVIDIA drivers of the NVIDIA site, the setup fails because it doesn't detect my video card and the setup fails.
I hear Dell will be updating all Alienware drivers on October 11, is that true? If not how else will I get my drivers up to date?
Please Help
Thanks

Oh, don't get me started. I had to get a hacked ATI Mobility Catalyst driver for my M18x so I could upgrade to version 11.9. Dell could very easily let Alienware users update to the standard drivers, but according to ATI Dell wont let that happen. I love my M18x, but Dell blows monkey chunks on the updated driver front. At least I can get the hacked drivers which are stable as a rock.
