    Hey, do you guys have any trouble when playing half life 2 or team fortress? My game doesn't lag, it just freezes all together. I dont think that the g1s should have any problems with running these games at higher settings right? I tried downloading the newest drivers from latopvideo2go or whatever but when i downloaded the vista 32 drivers it said that it couldn't find any nvidia products. I have no troubles with call of duty 4 and bioshock but those half life games just always give me trouble

    You also need a modded INF file to install the drivers from laptopvideo2go, I think. (I'm just reciting from other people's posts since I don't use modded drivers :) )

    But there should be documentation on that site on how to use their drivers, probably it's a few clicks away.

    OK I got the newest drivers and I am still having the same problems. Even the original half life freezes. What gives? Every single game I run through steam seems to give me problems

    I'd recommend you to update your DirectX and get the latest drivers from laptopvideo2go. I also had problems running the Orange Box with my new F8Sv but after doing these 2 things it's running flawlessly
