    Recently decided to upgrade my GPU from a nvidia 260m to a 670m. I have installed the card and I having the hardest time figuring out how to mod the .inf file so that the laptop recognizes the new card. The card show up as a standard VGA Graphics adapter in device manager, with the hardware id as
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&SUBSYS_02A21028&REV_A1
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&SUBSYS_02A21028
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&CC_030000
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&CC_0300

    I have tried mutiple ways online and still cant get the setup to even recognize the card.
