Does anyone know where we can get updated Nvidia drivers for Windows XP on the new SR MBP's? I've got Battlefield 2 installed, but would like to get updated Nvidia drivers so it'll run more smoothly.

I installed all of the drivers that were supplied with Boot Camp 1.4, just wondering if there are any other ones that are new/updated, and if so, where can I get them?

I tried downloading the latest 8 series drivers from Nvidia, but when I tried to install them it said that it couldn't locate the hardware on my system, I assume it's because there are special 8600m GT drivers for the Macbook Pro's? Thanks for the help!

You can check out Laptopvideo2go, but the process is slightly involved (editing inf files etc).

has the 163.14 drivers already setup and ready to go. I've installed them on my SR MBP, and they work great!
