Proper Nvidia drivers

I have a Toshiba P100 satelite laptop with Windows Vista and I can't seem to
get any drivers to work with the video card properly. I have an NVidia
Geforce Go 7300 Video Card. I have tried the drivers that Toshiba supplies
but when I go into standby and bring it back out of safe mode the resolution
changes from 1400x900 to 1200x768 and doesn't give me the option to change
it back until i reboot.

I have tried the ones that come with Vista but the system doesn't shut down
properly. If I shutdown or try to go into standby the computer freezes at
shutdown. I have to foribly shutdown the computer. I have even gone as far
as to reinstall Vista from scrach with the same problems.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Re: Proper Nvidia drivers

Go to [url]www.notebookforums.com[/url]. Go to the Dell section. look under 17 - 20"
laptops. In there you will find a link for some driovers for Nvida cards
that a guy named "Geforce Tony" has created. They are you best bet. If you
can't find it, post back here and I will hunt down the link for you.
