1210 7400go, best NVidia driver right now?

Just curious. Looking over the laptopvideo2go drivers and don't know which one I want.

 

dude try 158.16
its the best as of now
its got a lot of performance boost over 101.70

 

yea 158.16 is ridiculous. people are getting around 15% performance boosts

 

It's quite weird because I am not able to use that version for my M1210.

It gives a weird error during installation. Do you guys know how to run that particular version without having the installation end at the very beginning?

 

Is it compatible with Windows Vista Home Permium 32bit ??

 

Make sure you have the modded INF in your extract. I was planning on updating my stock Dell driver to 101.70. If I'm more of a DVD / multimedia guy (not so much a gamer) will I get much of a bump using 158.16 over 101.70?

 

158.16 is the best drivers

 

Alright, I'll try them when I get home!

Vista32 compatable, right?

And for Vista, I only see .18, not .16...and that forum is riddled with install issues. Will it actually work?

 

Awwww crap. I uninstall my old driver, and THEN I see laptopvideo2go is down. Ugh.

 

Ok, I have the driver. Does anyone have the inf I would need to make this thing to work since lv2g is down?

 

Anyone got the modded INF
Please put on sendspace /etc...

This dependence over the laptopvideo2go is ridiculous
Should put the files on a file sharing sites

EDIT:
FOUND IT THE INF 158.18:

EDIT:
LOL
It seams that there is no need for the modded INF
Downloaded the International version in the NVIDIA drivers

I've installed 158.18 and still got 2.0 score under desktop performance for Windows Aero and 3.3 for 3D gaming. No improvement over the previous Dell driver.

 

does 158.18 support vista only? i'm on xp media center .

 

I used the dell drivers and got a score of 2 for desktop graphics too.

I uninstalled, then used the microsoft driver (i thini) got score if 3.3.....few days later windows update reported driver update for nvidia go, installed it and got score of 3.4 lol....nice improvement. not.

 

2.0 is too low for Aero, something seems wrong here. My M1210 with 7400 scores 3.7 in this area. 3D gaming is the same as yours at 3.3, which is down from 3.4 when I used the 101.xx driver.

 

oh sorry i have 3.4 for gaming graphics and 3.7 for desktop graphics...

anyway i the driver i used for dell only got me 2 for desktop loll..

 

Same here. The original Microsoft driver scored 3.3 for games and 3.7 for Aero, but had no option for external monitor.
Any other driver I've tried lowered it to 2.0 and 3.3 but added the external monitor option which is important to me.
I wonder...

 

Hi everyone

I really need a lot of help here..

tried installing the new drivers and got a BSOD which said this:

"0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0xBF9D619C, 0xBA8026D4, 0x00000000)
nv4_disp.dll - Address BF9D619C base at BF9D5000, Datestamp 4616c02e"

However, the driver seems to be updated still. The installation was no where near end though:

The driver version is the one I was trying to install..

 

try roll back driver.

 

Ugh, that .inf is gone again.

 

Thanks shogun8 for the fast response.

I'm not able to rollback driver. It seems to be working fine but I see no difference at all as compared to the old driver (which I got from Dell's website). I'm confused.

I have searched many other forums and I seem to be the only person using 1210 with 7400 getting a BSOD.

 

One more thing, I am using Windows XP 32bit. Is that the right driver for it?? Is there any other driver that I can use besides the Dell stock driver? Please help.

Many thanks in advance.

 

Uninstall

Go to control panel and Unistall Nvidia Drivers

 

Thanks.

I did uninstall the drivers. I'm currently using 94.22. If someone has had the same problems with me or any compatability issues with the latest version(s), try using this one. It's a very good upgrade over the Dell stock driver.
