    Hello, I am going to put vista Ultimate x64 on my vostro 1500 (currently with XP) and I was told that I should use laptopvideo2go.com (or something like that) to get my video drivers. Are there any specific update version that is recommended? Also do I need to install the modded INF file also?

    Yes, just download the latest driver from the homepage (you'll see them on the right).
    Then, you need to click on the 'forum' then on 'geforce driver releases', and then on the driver version you have. Toward the top of the thread, you will see a link for 'modded inf'. Download that and replace it with the inf file in your new drivers you downloaded earlier.
    Now, you can use the exe to install the new drivers.

    To tell you the truth, I really didn't notice much difference between the new drivers and dell's old drivers.
    Good luck.
