    Which video driver are people using for the Crysis Demo?

    I currently have the video drivers from the Asus website installed and am afraid to change the last ones I used from Laptop2video prevented me from playing DVD movies.

    Well, I just installed the Crysis demo on the G1S.

    Basically everything needs to be set to Low or it's unplayable.

    Trouble is, on Low it's just an ordinary First Person shooter as Crysis' only real value is it graphics... other than that it seems rather ordinary.

    Hopefully a new Driver will improve things.

    169.01

    Also, you have to switch vista's setting to "high performance" (just click on the battery icon) before....

    Is the 169.01 able to run DVD movies okay using Media Player?

    Last driver I had from Laptoptovideo had probs playing DVD movies.

    Had to switch to the drivers on the Asus site to get the DVD movies to play again.
