standby problems with modded nvidia drivers

i am having a problem with my modded nvidia drivers which i got from laptop video2go.com. the driver version is 180.48 and has a modded inf. the problem is that when i resume the laptop from standby the fans go on etc and the power lights but the screen stays black and i have to reboot in order to get it to work. i also put these drivers on a friends laptop as i found they made a big difference when gaming. my friend has an 8600gs in a zoostorm laptop and he has exactly the same problem. the problem mostly happens when the laptop is running off the mains. my specs are in my signature

please reply as this problem is really annoying

 

They keyword here is "modded". That automatically answers your question. You want the laptop to behave normally? Install the official drivers...or trial and error on other modded drivers.

 

there must be a way because sony are useless and dont release video drivers and most people who play games on their laptops use modded dricers and you dont hear about this problem. i looked it up but couldnt find any answers to the problem

 

Try an older driver. Use DOX ones. His are good.

 

Most of the 18x drivers from lv2go or any DOX drivers do not support sleep mode.
Use Hiberanting, right now it's the only way.

 

I always remember Dox's drivers caused the loss of sleep mode on my system.

 

Dox has fixed the sleep problem although it is not guaranteed to work for everyone. He even mentions that he fixed this.

 

ill have a look at DOX optimized drivers, are the latest ones any good.

 

would the 17x drivers from lv2go support sleep mode

 

Try the latest DOX before you go out on a limb on a trial and error. From what I know, they are based on the official NVIDIA notebook one and sleep is not an issue.

 

problem solved there was an nvidia program running in the background which caused it to freeze on resuming from standby. i found it in msconfig it was called nvidia display sriver service and it was under services

 

yeah i tohught it was solved but it isnt ill have to try the dox optimized drivers

 

Actually I've been having this problem with all 18x.xx drivers. The official 179.28 driver works like a charm however.

 

i cant use the official 179.28 driver as it does not support sony notebooks. if there is a way to change the inf for it then i would use it if not where do i get dox optimized drivers from

 

please help i had a search but i cant find the site for downloading DOX optimized drivers

 

Have fun...

thanks ill try that

 

The only drivers that allowed my MBP to sleep is 175.19 and 179.28.

 

im using the 179.28 laptopvideo2go drivers and get similar benchmarks as the dox optimized drivers except i get to still have sleep mode.

 

For me waking from sleep mode works but only when the laptop is plugged in AC power. If I´m with battery on it doesn´t work. If I´m plugged in AC power with battery on and I unplug it the system hangs and have to reboot.
Using DOX´s 181.22.1 drivers, they´re very good for gaming.
Take care
