Vista - Updating notebook drivers

Updating notebook drivers

Should I update the 9300M GS in my notebook? Nvidia does state to use OEM drivers first, but the newest drivers available are from Nvidia's website. Seeing as I don't play too many games, should I update the card along with DirectX or leave it?

Re: Updating notebook drivers

If you don't play games just leave it, especially if notebook is working OK. That's my opinion.
Recently, I updated the ATI driver in my second lappy just to find out it doesn't work like it should and I have to roll everything back to the previous one.

I suppose. I've never had problems with nvidia so I'll give it a shot. I can always roll back if necessary.

Re: Updating notebook drivers

Ensure you create a restore point, do not rely on the software to do it for you.
