    all nVidia cards use the same driver package...

    HERE is the latest stable release for 64bit vista

    or you can use 177.41 with a modified .inf file

    on the official site and everything

    nope.that doesn't work... it needs a mobile one and the only one listed is the 8700GT...
    It doesn't find any drivers that are compatible...

    One would think the 8700M ones would work fine, if its anything like the desktop drivers. ^_^ I'd try them; I can't see it causing any real harm.

    Grr. Who says NVIDIA drivers are better than ATI's. Unified package people. It's so much better for everyone. I believe NVIDIA have released 2 official driver sets for the 8600Ms, and the last one was something like 10 month back. Just stick them all in the normal package for sake and stop making everyone's life that little bit more unbearable than it need be. 99% of the software needed is identical. Grr.
