ok i finally got the drivers from laptopvideo to work but the 163.76 beta drivers lowered my 3dmark06 score by almost 600 points.. my original score was 6147 and the new drivers gave me a score of 5600...i will have to see how it plays bioshock...

i would have to say the 163.76 drivers were better than the 165.01 drivers with the 165 drivers my 3dmark06 score was 2399... this driver needs some serious work before its acceptable...so far the stock drivers have performed better than both modified drivers...and yes i used the same resolution for all test... so thats not the issue...

Are you using DriverCleaner and CCleaner between driver installs?

also with the 163.76 drivers if you have a tv tuner in the m9750 these drivers will affect the viewing of your tv and will give you lines and overall a bad picture at full screen...

I wouldn't say "terrible", there are ALOT worse drivers out there. Believe me, I know lol.

My only recommendation is to use the drivers that work best for you. I prefer 94.20 or 97.92 (running 94.20 right now) for XP, so if you like, give those a shot. The 1xx.xx drivers give alot of people trouble under XP, unfortunately.

Just remember that there is NO "end-all, be-all" driver. Every driver has its shortcomings, just some have fewer than others.

yeah i know theres no-end-all driver... i might try those but if they dont work well with the tv tuner or playing games then theres no reason to stick with them when the stock drivers work with both...
