    Hello all,

    I am having trouble trying to get my Operation Flashpoint Red River to run with Nvidia GT335M.
    I did whitelist both the launcher and Redriver.exe.
    However, if I do that I only get a blackscreen with only sound.
    Is it the time to move on to newer graphic driver?

    Mohaa7 -- Instead of the whitelist, isn't there a global setting where you basically set the notebook to run ALL APPS on the DEDICATED GPU?

    Don't the 260.99 drivers have black screen problems with games when AA is enabled? I think the solution is to turn off AA. Try running the game in safe mode so you can turn AA off.
