On a related note, when I go to the Device Manager - > Standard VGA Graphics Adapter -> Properties - > Update Driver - > Browse - > Let Me Pick - > It now has 5 NVIDIA GeForce 260M GTX's listed under the show compatible hardware box alongside the Standard VGA Graphics Adapter - dunno if that makes a difference or not
Clear machine of all previous extracted folders.
Extract the setup from the link you gave me.
Copy and paste my attachment (extract from .rar first, can't attach .inf here) directly over existing .inf.
Now try to force install as previously directed.
I love you. Thanks a million.
Now if only I had come here before reinstalling my OS 3 times as Gateway support intructed ><
You're welcome.
In the future, you may add these lines in appropriate sections for any driver version.
This section >>> [NVIDIA.Mfg.NTamd64.6.0]
%NVIDIA_G98.DEV_0618.1% = nv_G9x_HD, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0618&SUBSYS_028E1025
This section >>> ; Localizable Strings
NVIDIA_G98.DEV_0618.1 = "NVIDIA GeForce 260M GTX"
(Hint: Try on latest from NVidia's site)
torrentg (or anyone else who knows whats going on), i've seen where you fixed a bunch of people's problems with NVIDIA drivers not being signed or the GPU not being recognized, and was wondering if the fix you posted was graphic card specific. I'm running a GeForce 9800m GS 512mb on my Asus G50VT, and its all sorts of messed up. I've tried all sorts of fixes found on other sites and nothin has worked. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated
