nVidia GeForce Go 7300 problems

Question

I'm having this video card problem while running a certain game. It is Half-Life 2. Whenever I play this game, eventually I get an error that has to do with the graphics. Well, I went to Valve's technical support page, and looked for my problem and one of the solutions (that would only fit my problem) was to get a video card update. So I went to nVidia driver downloads page, downloaded the driver and finally, I get no where. While trying to install my driver update, it basically states that it can't install it.   So when I was playing a mod of Half-Life 2, the game crashed and it stated another error (very small error) and I went to look it up. A while later I looked on nVidia's support page and I found that I needed a special driver update from dell. Well, I downloaded it and well... It's many months old. Say...May!   Well, I would like to know how I am able to download nVidia's driver update (newest version, Sept.) because I need it badly in order to have my game(s) run properly.   Edit: I just got my new laptop on Sept. 20 Message Edited by g_freeman on 09-30-2006 10:04 PM

There are some websites out there that mod nVidia drivers, and I can't remember the names...

Search the board and you'll find some. Or you could always try google.

I know your pain. The 7300 you have in your PC is a mod to begin with. It's a dell execlusive. That's why the nVidia drivers won't work.The only place you can get the updated drivers for it is off of the dell website.   Even after you install don't expect much. The 7300 will get you windows score (vista) to 3.1 maybe 3.4 if you are very fortunate. It's a VERY low end card.   The ATI X1400 is a little better but those are the only options if you have an e1505.
