First, I have to say thank you to everyone here for the TOP NOTCH help! I've spent quite a bit of time tweaking my G50V-A2 and after finally solving the freeze/lag issue (no easy task for me), I was ready to start enjoying a movie.

I didn't like the interface for WinDVD, so I got the Cyberlink PowerDVD Ultra. I'm now getting "graphic card incompatibility" errors when I try to play a Blu-Ray disc.

I've tried the laptopvideo2go drivers 179.28, 181.20, and the new 185 drivers with no luck.

Does anyone have experience with this?

Hi... I have a G71. The thing is that most modded graphic drivers will stop blue ray from working.

That is the reason Why i use the Official drivers.

Try and put the G50VT vga driver (the best one for me ) and is fully 9700gt compatible

I got it! 179.28 works great, without the modded inf file that is.

Thank you for the reply.

Yeah I tried to use the Mobility Modder program to make the moddified inf files "original" but to no avail.
