    Hey there, I've just upgraded to a 680m and the drivers work fine, except in the case of plugging in a hdmi cable where it doesn't seem to recognise it. I have an M17xR2 with an i7 620m, 4GB of RAM and on windows 7 64 bit professional. I followed the instructions for a clean install, and installed the 344.48 drivers. Is there anything I can do?

    Does anyone have the .inf for the most recent driver for the 680M? Also, what do we need to do to get Windows 10 installed? My system shows that its incompatible due to the video card.

    Win 10 includes all prior versions back to Vista. The driver is not modified, just follow the link for the driver you want to use and select the INF.

    Interesting what you say about win 10. My 680m R4 does not get the pre-order and I've done all the fixes. Sounds like some sort of oversight?

    Is the .INF already modded and working fine on the Eurocom 680m?

    It is all done but I don't need it anymore, the 680m is listed for the R4 and the Eurocom is on 980m Sli :D. Simple enough to test it, that site has always got me out of the 'cannot find hardware' error.

    What Bios & V-Bios is everyone using who can run the 680m on their M17x R2?, all I get is external Video just like the 780m, I can't get the laptop screen to show video from the 680m.
