Latitude E6400 Graphic Card Geeforce Quadro NVS 160M Driver Issues
Hi. I´ve bought a new Dell E6400 Latitude laptop with Quadro NVS 160M graphic card. I´ve tried to install Windows Vista 64 bit on it, but no driver offered by Dell is working. Every driver I´ve tried ist causing an Bluescreen. Error message I am receiving : STOP : 0X0000003B (0X0000000080000003,0XFFFFF80001DCFCD8,0XFFFFFA60X0000000000
000000)
Any Idea where could I get an working Quadro NVS 160m Vista x64 Driver?
Many Thanx!

1. Immediately after installing Windows Vista 64-bit did you download and install the Intel Mobile Chipset driver available from Dell Support Tools > Drivers & Downloads (bottom left of this page)?
2. There is just one video driver recommended by Dell dated 8/13/2008, version 7.15.11.7607, A01. The file to be downloaded is R191699.EXE.

Hi.
Thanks for your reply.
Yes I did. I´ve tried to reinstall the Windows 3 times, but everytime the same result. The whole system is crushing down. I have the suspicion that the latest Vista incl. SP1 is somehow unstable, or the hardware is not supporting it. The 32bit version is working perfectly, but I´d like to use the whole RAM resource available.
Not even technical support was able to help me.

Yes, without errors.
But I´ve installed driver from driver CD. But how far I´ve seen, it´s the same as on the website.

I´ve downloaded a fresh driver for the chipset and for the graphic card. Then reinstalled the windows, installed the chipset driver and then the graphic card, but got to the same result -> an bluescreen.
I´ll try your second suggestion and will try to remove the one 2 gb ram module form the computer and to reinstall the driver. Lets see if it will work.
I still think, that this is an problem of windows, because it is alone very unstable. Some internal applications are suddenly stopping working and restarting themselves. But I still don´t understand why on earth is everything working fine on Vista 32bit (with 32 bit drivers & SP1) and not under 64bit. Do you think it is of the RAM allocation under 32bit?

Yes, the DVD is including SP1.
Ok. I´ll will try to remove 2 Gb Ram, than to reinstall the windows, check the stability and then I´ll build in the RAM and will try to install the graphic card.
I hope this workarround will work.
Thank you so far, I´ll let you know if it worked.

So I was yesterday experimenting with my laptop.
I pulled out 2Gb Ram, reinstalled windows - Result : the system was again unstable, in fact the first message i´ve got was "windows explorer has stopped working" :P It´s just funny...
...so I´ve installed the chipset and then the graphic card and I´ve got the same bluescreen...
As it is a new Vista, I finally decided to give up and to return the Vista 64bit at the store and I will install the 32bit Vista which came with this notebook.
anyway big Thanks for everything!

Hello All -
I hope that this post will help out some others. After seeing this issue in many other forums regarding Vista 64Bit and more then 4GB of ram installed and getting the BSOD (03b) error. I wanted to resolve this issue, which I did. I have only test it one laptop at the moment. E6500 with 8GB of Ram running Vista 64Bit SP1. Here is the steps I did to resolve this issue. First do NOT install Vista with a SlipStremaed SP1 installed. I believe this is where the issue stem from. WHat I did was install Vista (No Service Pack) after installing it I installed the Intel Chipset Software directly from Intel, not Dell and before rebooting installed the Intel Matrix Storage Manager Drive directly from Intel's site. After that then I rebooted the system. Then installed the Stock Dell nVidia Driver (A01). Rebooted, tada the machine booted with no BSOD. After that I then applied SP1 to the machine. again the machine boots no issues. I wish I knew why Vista with SP1 slipstreamed (Technet Version) was causing the machine to BSOD. if anyone could have ideas as to whay this happens I think we all would love to know.
