Install the latest Nvidia Drivers on your Notebook

Graphic card drivers for notebooks are usually not updated that often by the manufacturer of the Notebook. Nvidia on the other hand does not provide access to many graphic card drivers for Notebook graphic cards on their website and the desktop graphic cards cannot be installed on notebooks.

The guys from Laptop Video 2 Go have come up with a solution to this problem. They provide an inf generator and driver downloads so that most notebook users can updated their notebook’s graphic card by downloading those files from the website. The modded inf files not only work with most notebook graphic cards but do provide access to several hidden features as well that fix issues and add tweaks to the drivers.

Basically the user selects a driver that he wants to install, downloads the modded inf file from the website, replaces the inf from the driver package with the modded one and starts the installation of the driver.

I suggest you read the FAQ on the site which explains the process in detail and provides links to the pages that are needed to download the files.

Responses so far:

  1. Sounds like something I ought to follow up, I’ve got an nVidia card in my laptop and I’m pretty sure that having had to reinstall XP from scratch I lost the optimum drivers for it.

    Thanks again for the heads up
