Build 5308 and NVID 7800 GTX (Laptop)

All,

Last month, I built vista 5308 and I didn't have problems getting the
drivers installed, today, I have installed vista, downloaded the drivers
from nvidas website.

I have these files :

31/03/2006 12:28 79,071 nvapi.dl_
31/03/2006 12:28 1,376,230 nvd3dum.dl_
31/03/2006 12:28 2,148,472 nvlddmkm.sy_
31/03/2006 12:28 21,331 nv_disp.inf
31/03/2006 12:28 52,728 nv_disp.PNF


I have tried RIGHT click install on the INF, did not work
update driver from computer manager, did not work.

any ideas?

has the download changed since i got it working awhile ago

I recently upgraded my drivers as well... no issues. Are you logged in as
the Administrator perhaps, and try disabling UAP.

Disable UAP:
