i can download the driver 163.76 beta off of tweakforce its 21.8mb... but its only an exe file... and also there is a nvidia website that goes to the 163.76 beta drive that is 41.9mb... do i need to download both...

there is no inf file at tweakforce the inf file is already integrated into the driver no need to do anything

dont go to any nvidia site just download the file unzip it and start the exe program it will work by itself ITS EASY!

How are you installing them? Your not just running the .exe are you?

i tried the drivers from the laptopvideo2go.com the 163.76 beta ones and when i extract the file it comes up with a million question mark icons and no file to place the modified inf file into any suggestions...

the tweakforce drivers are suppose to have the inf in it but it doesnt work on the m9750...

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...
post #50 of 68
also after playing bioshock it was laggy at full resolution a problem i was not having with the stock alienware drivers....
post #51 of 68
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?

yes i am...

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...

where are you looking at this information?
post #56 of 68
what do u mean where am i getting my information... i downloaded the drivers and tested them and there terrible...
post #57 of 68
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.
post #58 of 68
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...
post #59 of 68
where did you get the 97 drivers...
post #60 of 68
97 drivers work great!
