    Default MS-16F2 GTX 580M - What driver are you guys using?

    When I run Windows the driver it has is "Generic VGA Something" and the normal release drivers say I don't even have the right card, it won't install at all. The beta driver works though, so that is what I am running.

    I tried searching, and no luck. Just curious if everyone is running the beta drivers?

    use the modified INF. To see how go check laptopvideo2go.com. Or ask Paulow here in this MSI box.

    I'm also using a beta driver (295.51), mainly because it doesn't require a modded inf.

    No problems with the 295.51 beta driver on the GTX570M either

    So I take it that this is a common issue then? The normal driver saying you have no Nvidia hardware? The Beta is working, just wanted to make sure something wasn't wrong with mine.

    Older official drivers were missing GTX570M and GTX580M support.
