    when I go to the nvidia optimus site I get this link to download this update?

    NVIDIA DRIVERS 189.79

    Is this the best Optimus (stable) version?

    260.99 is the stable version, 266.35 beta is ....well beta. It fixed BFBC2 and broke the Witcher for me so I'm staying with 260.99.

    I dont know about that. I downloaded the 260 and had problems as well as the 266 but did fix PB... I had problems getting the games to run with the 335M GT card

    Desktops have optimus? WHAT :confused:

    Edit: By the way thats not for desktops. Read the url: "optimus-win7-x64-notebook-189.79.html"

    I really have no idea what you are refering to. This link I provided supports all these cards (heres the link: NVIDIA DRIVERS 189.79)
    Code: 
    This driver supports the following Optimus notebooks:

ASUS N61Jv with GeForce GT 325M
ASUS N71Jv with GeForce GT 325M
ASUS N82Jv with GeForce GT 335M
ASUS U30Jc with GeForce 310M
ASUS UL50Vf with GeForce G210M
