    hey,

    I opened counter strike earlier to play it, and a steam window popped up saying to update my GPU driver. when i went onto the nvidia website to look for a new version,the graphics card was not showen on their update listing. My laptop is the aspire 9114 wlmi, with the Nvidia Geforce Go 7600.

    Is it worth updating from the current version: 6.14.10.8340 (ForceWare version - 83.40) . And if so, where can i find a newer version.

    Also, when i was playing it, for some reason i could not jump as high as the normal...??? it was working earlier today...but for some reason it wouldnt let me now!? what is causing this annoying problem?? :mad:

    there should be a newer driver on the Acer FTP site; i have found however that even these drivers are woefully old.
