My ATI 3650 died so i bought a 9650m gt (found it cheap on ebay), but i have a problem finding a driver, or rather a nvidia control panel, that installs. If i go to nvidia and download the latest drivers for this specific card it will just say that it doesnt find any compatible drivers for my card when i do the install. If i download the latest drivers from Acer's site (old Vista drivers), it'll install the driver but not the control panel.
I can also install the latest Win7 drivers if i do it manually, but again, it wont install with a control panel.
Any solution to this?
I've reinstalled my OS (Win7 x86)
I've updated to the latest BIOS for the notebook.

maybe it's just not possible to run this card with this laptop :/ maybe possbile to flash it or something?

I came up against this on Vista with a geforcego6100... and asked about it on here.
It seems most laptop drivers are unique and have a specific .inf file allocated to them.
I did find by using the options in device manager and searching for "compatable hardware" that other drivers were listed by Microsoft. I made a full backup and tried installing and found a later one that worked great... and strange to say windows update only last week offered the latest NVidia driver which seems good... loads of new options in control panel.
