    Can someone tell me if there has been any new updates for the graphics card NVIDIA GEFORCE 7000M for a Acer Aspire 7520, because the graphics card that i have got is running slow because everytime i play my Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 game the laptop runs fine for about 10mins then it goes slow and makes the game sluggish all the time so i wanted to know if there was any new updates for NVIDIA GEFORCE 7000M and if so where can i fine them.

    Thanks

    If it slows after a certain period of time, that usually means that the laptop is overheating. Is your laptop new, have you cleaned out the vents recently?

    So is there anything else that i can do to it or is that it because i only want to play my game on it without slowing my game down so that my game runs fine all the time.

    Well if it's a 7000M, I think it'll just be chipset (integrated) stuff, it sounds like you're overheating somewhere.
