Hello all,

I have a strange problem with my nvidia graphics card driver. Recently I did a format of my laptop and reînstalled Windows 7 Home Premium. Everything seems to run oke, the only issue I have is that I can't get my nvidia graphics driver installed. Windows tells me my graphics card drivers aren't up to date so I went to the Nvidia website and let it scan my laptop. When it's done it tells me to download the driver and install it. When I run the driverupdate program from the Nvidia website, it first scans my systems and then comes to tell me that it cannot find the graphic cards hardware so it cannot install? Can anybody help me with this?

Hi D71, If you would be so kind and tell the model of Sony laptop we may be able to help you further , It is always a good idea to get the GFX drivers from the manufacturer of laptops as usually they are tweaked to suit the needs of the manfs ;)
