    I just got back my P150HM from Malibal. My 580M died so I had them replace it with the 680M. When I use the "detect GPU" on Nvidia's site it correctly identifies it as a 680M, but when I try to install their driver I get "Nvidia installer cannot continue. This graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware". What is causing this?

    The P1X0HM series doesn´t officially support the GTX 680m.
    Just use a modded Driver inf, you can take one from laptopvideo2go.com. :)
