Dell :: Uninstalling MobileForce Drivers.. But Something Still There!
Jan 11, 2008
I'm awaiting the arrival of a FX2500 (a 7900GTX by any other name) for my Inspiron 9400 and had downloaded the drivers which were recommended to work (Forceware 169.04 - anything newer wouldn't have the O/C ability)...
However, I thought I'd give them a try on my current setup with a Go 7800 to see what effect they had...
I uninstalled the current drivers I was using (92.92 Mobileforce Drivers) using the uninstall option in the start menu...
I then made sure that all drivers for the display adapter had been uninstalled.
Then I ran Driver Cleaner Pro, then CCleaner (both the Cleaner and the Registry issue button) and Driver Sweeper for good measure...
However, when I rebooted and tried to install the Nvidia Forceware169.04 drivers the installation got in a little way, and then said that it could not continue as the drivers were not for the card it detected!..
It could have something to do with when I first booted in after removing all the drivers, XP said it had found a new card, asked for the drivers, but while it was doing this the little icon on the taskbar for a new card flashed up "new hardware found Nvidia 7800 Mobileforce X2"....
It appears that even though I've done everything I can think of to remove the "Mobileforce" label from my computer (including going into regedit and finding and deleting every string which mentions mobileforce) something still remains!
Or - does 169.04 simply not work with Go 7800s?
It's not a big problem because i've reinstalled my old Mobileforce drivers - but it's left me concerned that when I install my new FX2500 card next week, I may not be able to get rid of some stubborn bit of a program somewhere on my comp........................

Trying to get rid of these questionably useful programs -- but I don't see entries for them in add/remove programs in the control panel (or for any of the other useless VAIO software packages that come on OEM machines sans "fresh start")

I have an XPS 17 L702X. I just did a re-install of windows 7 on my wife's laptop. How do I use the drivers and utilities disc to get the drivers for the hardware on this computer? I can't get online on it. I do have the discs.

Does anyone know if Dell modifies the video card drivers that they post on the driver download website specifically for their machines?
Or do they just download the latest drivers from the Nvidia webiste test on a particular machine for a little while and either pass or fail the driver for official use?

I own a Dell 7520 and it has four 3.0 usb ports. However, I have discovered that one program I use does not support Intel 3.0 USB ports only USB 2.0 ports. So the only port that program will use is the Realtek USB card reader on the 7520 because that is a native 2.0 port.
According to a poster Innogen on the Intel support forum "The BIOS in my Dell Inspiron 7520 allows me to disable it so that the USB 3.0 ports revert to USB 2.0 functionality." but I can't find any such functionality in my BIOS (using version A06).

I tried uninstalling the Intel USB 3.0 drivers in WIn 7 Ultimate hoping that when I rebooted it would install USB 2.0 drivers but it simply reinstalled the USB 3.0 drivers.
I would really like to get this program working on my computer and while I am not happy about losing USB 3.0 functionality I can live with it until the vendor gets its act together and starts to support Intel USB 3.0.

I've posted a few questions on this forum in the past and got the help i was in search of and now I'm in another pickle and i figured I would give this place a shot.
I'm trying to find the proper driver I should be using for my laptop's graphics card for gaming performance. I have searched the web and googl'd and what not. I even went to Nvidia's website and to the download drivers section they have, but could not find any drivers for my graphics card.
My graphics card is a NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS --MobileForce M6 Enhanced--
My operating system is Window's Vista 32-bit...
If you all could help me out it would be greatly appreciated. As well, if you need any more information or specifications just ask me and I will try to figure them out.

I'm using the 175.32 drivers for the 7900GTX on my Dell XPS M1710, but was told by a friend that there are better ones out there. On the nvidia website it only gives me Quadra NVS drivers, which I'm told would give worse performance than my current drivers. I use my laptop for gaming, not rendering.
Any other driver suggestions?

I ran MobilityModder already. But what component do I have to remove first? And what is the step after that?............

Normally I can do this easlly, but for some reason I'm having a hard time bringing my XPS16 Video drivers up to speed.
Maybe it's because I'm used to dealing with Nvidia drivers....
Can someone detail the process?

I have been running Windows 7 x 64 on my M1330 fitted with a Intel X-25M SSD for a few weeks now and all seems ok.
I did have problems with the Ricoh card reader driver but downloaded the latest 64bit Win7 driver for the XPS 1645 from the Dell site (manually installed rather than using the setup.exe installer).
All of the other drivers and control software I installed was Dell Vista x64 drivers specifically for the M1330. This is a summary of what I installed:
BIOS = M1330 A15 R207196 (Nvidia confirm that A14 or greater must be installed before updating the video drivers to the latest) .......

I have no idea how to do this. When I visit the Dell site and input my laptops info it recommends driver updates.
Most installed without a problem, however the DVD/CD drivers are a mystery. There are 11 recommended updates to the drivers but I cant figure out how to install them.
Some are applications but most are zipped files. Where to begin?
Here are the file names:
Applications: R235097, R246607, TSST_TS_L633C-12-7SATA-TRAY-A06_R20075
Zipped files: AD-7580S FD06, DV_W28SV_ROB_UPDATER, GTION-WIN7-A107, HLDS-CTION-A104, R250548_KD03FW, SA3_HD14, SA4_JD12, SE1_ED14

I have a Dell XPS-M1710 and I've tried a few different third party video drivers, but when I try ot play a Blu-Ray movie it says that the drivers aren't Blu-Ray compatible. I'm back using the Dell ones, but they really suck, especially for gaming, and even more so with newer games. Does anyone know of any good video drivers that can play Blu-Ray movies?

I'm new to these forums and also to my new XPS-16. I'm here to ask the wise gurus of these forums for some help.
Does Dell automatically install the newest drivers onto your laptop or do you have to do it yourself.
