    The stock drivers should be the best currently. MrDJ has discussed this in one thread. It was also discussed HERE

    Thanks for the response.

    BTW, I'm real happy with my new NP9150 I bought from Powernotebooks.com

    i wish i had stuck with oem 302.71 as no crashes when i first got lappy.
    then updated to latest whql but crashes srarted but only in B3. every other game runs fine. must admit its the first time ive been able to play blops with out any stutter at all.
    after the crashes started i hunted for 302.71 and cant find them anywhere. drivers on disk are for 675 so i downloaded latest on clevo site but still crashes. only way i could get original drivers back was a system restore but now they crash on a regular basis in B3 only.
    that will teach me :(

    nvidia new whql please asap :)

    I did post a thread about running the latest nvidia 306 driver with the 680m. Got a couple of responses, and the conclusion is that the best driver for the 680m is the stock 302 driver. It's not only 680m having problems with 306 driver. Apparently, it seems like this applies to all Nvidid Kelpar build cards.

    Stick with the stock 302 for now.

    Just an FYI, with BF3 on 306 driver, I get crash, random temporary control freeze, and jitters on the game screen.
