Cool NVIDIA GeForce Go/M-Series Drivers Thread

NVIDIA GeForce Go/M-Series Drivers Thread v3.02



This thread provides instructions for those who don't know what to do for obtaining/installing new video drivers for your laptop with an NVIDIA GeForce Go/M based graphics card!






Drivers for the NVIDIA GeForce Go/M-Series Videocards



LaptopVideo2Go Modified ForceWare Drivers (Requires replacing INF files on drivers made for Desktop graphics cards) Created and maintained by Pieter of LV2G.

NotebookForums.com MobileForce Modified ForceWare Drivers (Run installer to extract + install) Created and maintained by me (Fenuxx) and Krayziepop.

NVIDIA GeForce Go 7-Series ForceWare Drivers (Run installer to extract + install) The latest drivers from NVIDIA for the GeForce Go 7-Series ONLY!!! These drivers are to be considered "fallback" drivers for GeForce Go 7-Series cards, as they're pretty old.




-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explaination of Differences Between the Drivers


LaptopVideo2Go Modified ForceWare Drivers - Created and maintained by Pieter of LV2G, these drivers are essentially reference NVIDIA drivers with Mobile GPU (Graphics Card) support added.

NotebookForums.com MobileForce Modified ForceWare Drivers - Created and maintained by me (Fenuxx) and Krayziepop. These take LaptopVideo2Go drivers a step further by also adding image quality and performance tweaks.

NVIDIA GeForce Go 7-Series ForceWare Drivers - These are NVIDIA's drivers made and maintained by NVIDIA for their GeForce Go 7-Series videocards ONLY. They're quite old now, and should be considered "FALLBACK" drivers only.

NVIDIA Video Driver Update from Uninstall -> Install -> Gaming Bliss


Follow the instructions in THIS THREAD!

The "Best" Driver for Your Laptop


The "Best" Driver for your laptop can only be determined by YOU, in the games YOU play, and the settings YOU use. However, below is what the majority believe is the best driver currently available (this will *hopefully* be updated as time goes on):



Windows XP 32-Bit (Note: 64-Bit drivers are a bit harder to judge, so you'll have to some research and testing on your own)


LaptopVideo2Go Modified NVIDIA ForceWare X 169.04 XP

NotebookForums.com MobileForce XP 174.31



Windows Vista 32-Bit (Note: 64-Bit drivers are a bit harder to judge, so you'll have to some research and testing on your own)


LaptopVideo2Go Modified NVIDIA ForceWare X 169.04 Vista

NotebookForums.com MobileForce VS 174.31

-->SPECIAL THANKS<--


I would like to take this space to thank everyone who uses the NotebookForums.com MobileForce drivers that Krayziepop and myself author. Also, a HUGE thanks goes to Pieter (mobilenvidia) from LaptopVideo2Go, as well as other modders out there on the net.

Another special thanks goes to Krayziepop, our resident KrayzieTrucker, and MobileForce Vista Guru.

Another thanks goes out to the former Tweaks R Us team. JRd1st and Daishi helped me get on my feet with driver modding. You guys are the best, and I owe you guys a BIG thanks for everything you did. MobileForce would not be around without the work you two started. Tweaks R Us will be sorely missed, but will live on forever!


Finally, I'd like to thank everyone over at the former DHZer0point Team. Some of the founders of the modded driver community, you guys will be missed. Thank you all for your work, us driver tweakers and modders owe you guys a HUGE thanks. Live Long and Prosper...
