    My u45jc-a1 wont upgrade its video graphics drivers, it keeps saying that nvidia can't find compatible drivers etc.

    I've modified the drivers for 260 and they installed but I looked in system info and a lot of the system info was missing, is this safe to do? are the power profiles etc going to be affected or does it not matter?

    It says specifically.

    The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit.

    I have the newest bios also. Should I just keep the modified driver update I did and not worry about anything else? It wont affect the power consumtion and optimus graphics etc?

    I modded the 260.99 driver but optimus wouldnt activate and also when you look at system info in the nvidia panel it doesnt show any info about what drivers are installed.

    I rolled back the driver.
