    For video editing and capturing I use ADOBLE ONLICATION cs3. With the stock video drivers I can view the images in the onlocation fields monitors. With the laptop2go drivers I can't. The program works correctly. I can tape and all. But I just can't view live on the monitors.
    Adobe support have not been of help as they just told me to use the drivers that comes with the original dvd...

    I have tried newer and older laptop2go drivers and I have always the same problem...

    :confused:

    I don't think this is a G50 problem, so the title is misleading. This is a GPU driver problem. You can always expect modded drivers to be quirky, this is no surprise ;)

    thakns for your help! :)
    I managed to fix the problem using the latest official nvidia driver togheter with the modded inf from laptop2go :)
    Now I have an updated video driver (not the latest one that is beta) and onlocation is working fine :)
    thanks!

    In the future you can also give the Mobility Modder tool (the nvidia one) a try from driverheaven.net

    I use it whenever Nvidia releases an updated official driver from their website and it's worked like a charm for me every time. I prefer this method over the laptopvideo2go ones as I also found their drivers / modded .inf files a little wonky. Since I've had no problems with the Mobility Modder tool it's become my preferred choice.

    Cheers!

    Yep, glad you solved the problem. I actually wasn't much help, didn't have time at that moment.
