You need to download a modified .inf file and place it in the directory that the driver is found in (should be c:\nvidia\driver_number\). Then go to that directory and double click setup.exe.

Here's the link: http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/infs/7...f/nv4_disp.inf

I'm wating for the new 8 series to come out. Our Go cards will finally be supported by Nvidia with these drivers...no more needing to get the modifiied inf file!!! Also there will be a new user interface. Check it out on the http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/ home page.

If you play DOD source this driver is a must. It doubled my FPS to about 60 average and no more stuttering!!

I play dod:source...
It brought my 15 fps to 30...
Lol...

Interestingly enough, if I turn on my cracked version of DOD:S, I can get a constant 40 fps at the highest settings with HDR...
If I play with Steam's DOD:S, with lowest settings and HDR on, I get 30 fps and it still drops down whenever I see someone or something blows up...
Driving me nuts right now...

Anyone have any ideas how to get better performance on DOD:S?
