    www.laptopvideo2go.com always has the latest official and unofficial drivers, with modified .inf files that let you install them on most laptops. Right now, they have the latest released Nvidia driver 158.18 with a modified .inf that works just fine on the M1710. Just read the instructions on the site on how to insert the modified .inf into the install directory correctly.
     
    In the case of 158.18, it's particularly important to uninstall the previous Nvidia drivers completely.
     
    In my experience, ntune on non-Nvidia motherboards is unreliable and mostly useless. I'm hoping that Nvidia gets rid of it soon, as has been rumored.

    I'm getting the "Server Crash" message too. I downloaded the Driver from Dell: nVidia GeForce GO 7950 GTX, v.98.09, A03 (34.2MB). It works ok, but the aspect ratios are off no matter what resolution I set it to. The scaling function for the nVidia control panel appears to be missing. Anyone else having the same problem? BTW, games (World of Warcraft) do play in the correct aspect ratio.

    Some of the drivers are available, but the 158.18 is missing :(
