I would really like some help with this. I have the 9600M GT and the driver that's installed is from 9/27/09. Crazy. I can't believe Dell didn't do a little compatibility with Win7, especially 64bit since these ship with 4GB RAM.
I have the same issue of getting the hardware not recognized error when I grab the latest Win7 64bit version from the Nvidia site. And lately, I've been having a checkerboard show up on my screen which requires a full restart along with some black screens with a recovery back to desktop.
Can someone either post the fix or send it to me via private message?
Thanks!
