    First!!! My mic isn't working...I haven't even tried to use it since day one...Just after I installed Win 7 64bit...I notice that there isn't any mic. I was playing L4D and couldn't talk to no one...anyone can help me find drivers or locate the thing. I look under device manager and didn't find any thing not even any ??? or unknown device???

    Second!! The games would freeze and it'll not allow me to do anything except a hard power on and off... no errors...etc.. It freezes on most of my games.. L4D, Hunting unlimited 2010, RE5, Dragon Age, Borderlands and condemned... I heard there's some sort of driver and modd tool for this card.. pls direct me to it...i'm using the base win 7 64bit nvidia driver 186.81....from their site.

    Have you tried the Vista Driver?

    As to the Video Driver. if you look at iaTa's driver updater thread stickied in this forum, it will walk you through the process of installing the video driver and nvidia's tool set. You might have to find the right driver for you, but you have plenty of options to choose from between laptop2go, DOX, and nvidia itself.

    If you are locking up you might need to Download HWMoniter and check your temps to see if they are spiking. You might have dust build up in your system restricting air flow.
    It also might be a driver blotched install. Did you let Win7 install everything or did you install some of the drivers yourself from the recovery discs?
