    If you're referring to the graphics driver, go to nvidia's website and download the latest driver there.

    I think the problem is that you forgot to plug your fan back in. I did that once when I repasted my system. Also, what drivers are you using?

    I'm surprised you managed to get the gtx 260m to work properly and register to the system, i had horrible problems with mine when i tried that last year, ended up just sticking with the 9800m

    Drivers wouldn't install, all that worked was dox drivers, ummm would idle at 85C even with the auto-clock settings turned out, kinda just a bad turn around plus later on found out that the card was bricked by the person i received it from.
