    I can't seem to install video drivers anymore, whenever i download the modified .inf files and do the Mange -> Have disk etc for my video card it just keeps beeping. The .INF files also saves as a text document and I try to remove it but I can't. Its always shows up like nv_disp.inf.txt in the end. I can't remove the .txt part. Also the only driver that only works for my laptop is Dox 185.xx. Anything else makes my screen have artificial spots and my video card goes out or my screen freezes. Any suggestions?

    You must rename it, delete the .txt part at the end, then save.
