    I downloaded the 84.56 version of the nVidia drivers from tweaksrus, but whe I run the setup it says it can't find drivers that match my current configuration. I don't understand why this would happen, so any help in the matter would be appreciated.

    Oh, I should mention I have an Inspiron E1705 with a GeForce 7800 Go series card.

    That was in reference to jimc's post. I haven't tried Darrick's option yet.
