    I got my hel-80 back from power notebooks repair service a few days ago and resubscribed to world of warcraft. I am now hopelessly addicted again. Unfortunately, I sometimes get a bluescreen and hour or two into playing. I think its something to do with my graphics card drivers because it references a problem with nv4_driver.dll. I am using the 97.28 drivers from laptopvideo2go.com. I have a Go 7600

    whenever I try to click the check temperature link in the nvidia control panel it wants me to download the nvidia nTune performance application. Do I do this? I was under the impression that those features were built in.

    Use older drivers. I've found the 84.56s rock stable.

    You're using drivers that were released primarily for the 8800s and you expect stable performance?
