    Hello all,
    Fallout 3 comes out tonight at midnight so I'm looking to upgrade my video drivers to the latest (I have a P7811-FX). I currently have the latest Gateway version of the Nvidia 9800 M drivers installed on my laptop, but they are version 176.15.

    On Nvidia's site they have version 178.24 for desktop cards. When I had it autodetect the 9800 M driver it said to get updates from Gateway.

    So is anyone running newer drivers direct from Nvidia, and how are they working out for you?

    Thanks JBN. I think I'll try the GW drivers first and then Dox.
