Never tried lv2g driver before. Anyone tried them yet, and if so are they better than the MobileForce 169.04?

I am going to do the upgrade, but the latest seem to focus just on Crysis. If you don't play that and are happy with your current drivers it is probably not worth it.

Still, you might want to check the release notes to see if any of the updates might help you out.

I am still using the Dell Nvidia driver released Jun 2006 due to having the ability to turn off the screen when the lid is closed. I usually connect my notebook to my home theater for gaming.

Do any of the modded drivers support this function now?

Or better yet, will the screen turn off automatically with an external monitor/TV connected via DVI (I haven't really looked)?

I know I need to update my drivers, so any help would be appreciated.

Just set your display to turn off after a couple minutes

i never had that problem. i use the 169.04 mobile force driver now, and it always turns the screen of after closing the lid.
the old drivers were fine for some time, but they simply offer much worse performance for many current games.

I believe that if you use non-dell drivers, you need to have quickset installed to have the display turn off when the lid is closed

no, you don't need quickset. i don't have any dell software installed and it works fine for me. there's no problem with lid close/screen off when using the 163.xx, 169.xx drivers from moblie force or ltv2go. at least i never had issues.

Then I guess I stand corrected
