    Are there any newer GPU drivers for the NP5160?

    I get a few errors with certain games when I set them to use the Nvidia GPU instead of the integrated GPU. One game in particular being Atom Zombie Smasher, which crashes to desktop immediately with the message "runtime has asked to terminate the program in an unsual way", paraphrased. Anyone else run into a similar problem?

    Grab the latest driver from nvidia.com, 270.61 which supports the Clevo GT 540M in that laptop. If you want to update the IGP's driver too you can get that driver from Intel.com's support and downloads.
