Released for the FXGo5200 on the 5150/5160, but works flawlessly so far on my Quadro FXGo1000 with NO modifications. WHQL Certified for a slew of Dell/NVidia mobile cards.
Available here - ftp://ftp.dell.com/video/R89437.EXE
Anyone else care to comment?

i tried it just before... and going to revert to the originals...

why? -> dual display (watch movie on analog display and do "work" on the lappy screen) shocking video performance.....

I'm back to 53.82 drivers as of Friday as well...FXGo 5200 users get NVDM 67.42, Quadro FXGo700 users get NVDM 56.72, but us Quadro FXGo1000 users are still stuck with NVDM 53.8x series...wonder when Dell will give us a 56.xx series driver to take advantage of our NV36 GPUs

Finally, aimed specifically at the Quadro FXGo1000, version A04 -

List of changes/enhancements -

Quote:
*DVD playback fails on Solidworks app profile.
*Solidworks: New window load incomplete with artifacts.
*Taskbar and icons follow the primary display when using MS property page.
*Overlay is not visible on both displays when running with Video Mirror disabled.
*The secondary display does not resume to the previous resolution.
*Dynamic throttle enabled in battery mode only.
And the latest driver for the Quadro FXGo700 here -

I agree; clone mode + DVD playback = crap.
Now, it's time to try their A05 - it's the latest Dell driver for the Quadro FXGo1000, and is a non WHQL 61.76 driver. Available here -

As far as original drivers, you using 53.81 or 53.82 ?

All the 6 series drivers I posted above ARE official Dell releases.
have you tried 53.82 from Dell? I find it slightly faster than 53.81.

I see.
Perhaps the Asia Pacific site hasn't been updated; the US Support Page lists the 53.82, 67.42 & 61.76 as Official drivers.
