    For some reason when i try uploading the latest driver for my video card it pops up msg like this

    "The NVIDIA setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit"


    What do i do?

    where did you download them?

    make sure you are downloading the notebook drivers... not the desktop ones.

    Even on the latest official nvidia notebook drivers will show that message, because 7 series mobile cards are not yet supported.

    The only way is via laptopvideo2go modded .infs or modd the .inf yourself with the PCI IDs of your card.

    ;)
