    Just curious if there are better performing geforce go drivers out for the dv9000's. HP's site only lists january, but I see some beta drivers that were released on 2/20. My current version is 7.15.10.9746 released on 12/10

    As far as I know, HP have never updated graphics drivers. It only gives out the initial drivers for the system because it doesn't make them (AMD, nVidia, or Intel make them). All other minor system components have drivers made by HP from what I understand.

    For Vista, Windows Update just released a new driver for Geforece 7200. That new driver does resolve the issue that mouse cursor keeps getting reset to the center of screen whenever you sign in or what not.

    However, it does not resolve the issue where your screen does blink a bit soon after you sign in to your account. It is an improvement at least though.

    FYI, the new driver version is 7.15.10.9815 released on 02/27/2007
