    I know the answer is already on here somewhere, but I haven't found it. I'm not sure exactly how to update my 8800gtx driver. I remember there being specific instructions on how to remove the old ones and install a new one, but I don't remember and haven't done it before. Also, I tried to download the driver from the sager site and it's not working. The download says it's in progress but never actually works at all. I appreciate any help and/or links here.

    Here's what I do:

    --> download new driver set from www.laptopvideo2go.com
    --> replace .inf file with modded .inf provided
    --> uninstall old drivers (I use control panel)
    --> reboot into safe mode
    --> run driver sweeper pro
    --> run CCleaner
    --> reboot
    --> install new drivers
    --> reboot
    --> game
