    I download the latest drivers from Nvidia (They are Beta). Version 167.21
    I get the error message that setup could not find any compatible drivers. I downloaded the correct drivers from the website and I'm running it as it as Admin. I can't run it as XP mode since I then get the error that Im not running Vista. Any Ideas?

    Use my guide on updating the drivers. You`re trying to use desktop drivers,that`s why it`s not working,
    Laptopvideo2go and Tweakforce have good drivers.
