It depends a little on what graphic card you have and what's more important to you; speed or stability.

The versions that come via notebook manufacturers are thoroughly tested and stable with your system, but they usually are already outdated when they come out and don't always deliver the maximum performance, especially with the latest video cards.

I always grab my Nvidia drivers from laptopvideotogo.com , but some of them aren't always the most stable ones for my particular system. Just a matter of a little testing and reading the threads and forums on the website.

Anyway, the ones you have aren't the same as the 169.04 drivers, i think there the 156.65 version so there way older then that.

 

ok thanks im sticking with stability for now
so hp.com it is
