    Im curious if i should or shouldnt upgrade the D900C(Sager 9260) video drivers(Nvidia Go 7950 GTX 512)

    Any feedback on which drivers work best for this as im having some issues lately.

    Sometimes i quit a game and it would freeze and the screen would turn to a bunch of scrambled small different colored boxes. I close screen and open again and its back to normal but with a ndisp_(cant remember hee) error, im guessing its video driver related. Any help would be great.

    i heard mixed reviews about those drivers if i recall a while ago, how are they? Also is that error i decribed above a video driver related issue? It started happening in the last couple weeks, even though i hadnt upgraded my drivers. Could old drivers be bad over time on the computer?

    I have been using them on the Geforce 7 series with no issues.

    you can try the 176.xx and 175.xx

    just try gaming on the drivers.

    if the games are not performing good, try another driver.

    remember to fully uninstall and remove all Nvidia driver info before installing the next drivers.
