    I have a Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS video card. I am trying to update it. So I went nvidia website and download the driver, but when I go to install it, it says "The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate andy drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit". The file I downloads says 162.22_forceware_winvista_32bit_english_whql. I have windows vista 32bit. Can anybody help me please

    Why do you need to update ... and what website/link are you going through?

    You might be trying to install desktop drivers ...

    it does not matter where I go, because when I try to install it its says that it can "The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate andy drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit".

    Please check the sticky in the graphics card forum. You need a modded inf file. It can be found next to the driver on laptopvideo2go.
