You have to download the .inf file with the driver.

Why do you need to install updated drivers?

 

The laptopvideo2go drivers are desktop drivers with modified .inf files to allow installation in laptops. Problem is that they may not fully support the laptop card. Many have problems with Power Options and temperature control, and many report the drivers do not work. If you really want to update, try the latest 8600M driver for the M1330, 174.41. I have it installed on my M1530, but it doesn't perform any differently than the original driver.

 

Many people look to "improved drivers", hoping to squeeze a few more numbers in benchmarking tests. Usually only minor if any differences are seen.

 

Laptop video drivers are written specially for each laptop supplier, as laptop video "cards" can be different from one manufacturer to another; the cards are usually built for just a single computer or so, and may have different a different feature set than the corresponding desktop version.

i jsut installed the latest nvidia updates from the laptop2video website and now my game works perfect

Seconded :)

Just to comment (I did a whole day of research and testing to see what the best drivers were for my M1530), if you have the 1500 series, the 175.xx (highest number) is the best to go.  Now if your playing a really hardware intensive game (like Age of Conan like I am), it's best to go with the 177.xx drivers and then download the nVidia control panel so you can overclock it (just overclock it by 10-12%).  Otherwise, the 175.xx series is great. 

interesting results

 

i hvae the latest 177.xx but how do i overclock it?

 

i got the M1550, and i wanna click it by 8 % to see how much better it runs

 

thanks

Overclocking helps it tremendously.  Just go to the nVidia website, do a search for "nVidia System Tools," download and install it.  Then once you go to the nVidia Control Panel, it'll have an extra option under "Device Settings" for overclocking. 

 

Good luck...
