Changes and Fixed Issues in Version 331.58

The following sections list the important changes and the most common issues resolved since versions 331.40. This list is only a subset of the total number of changes made in this driver version. The NVIDIA bug number is provided for reference.

Windows Vista/Windows 7/Windows 8 Fixed Issues

[OpenGL]: The driver doesn’t report an error if the GLSL geometry shader source

does not declare the input or output primitive types. [951939]

[surround]: With Surround enabled, the graphics driver fails to install when overinstalled. [1355454]

[3DTV Play]: Added support for the following display:

• Samsung UA60F6400EJXXZ [1364731]

[sLI][GRID 2]: The minimum frame rate is lower in SLI mode than in single GPU

mode when global illumination is enabled in the game. [1382620]

[sLI][surround]: The driver loses NvSmartMax functionality if installed over a

Release 319 or older driver while Surround is enabled.[1364734]

The NVIDIA driver component NvSmartMax allows the driver to maximize an application window to the center display, among other Surround features.

Changes and Fixed Issues in Version 331.40

The following sections list the important changes and the most common issues resolved

since versions 327.23. This list is only a subset of the total number of changes made in this

driver version. The NVIDIA bug number is provided for reference.

[surround]: Driver installation fails if NVIDIA Surround is enabled.[1353369]

[3D Vision][Rainbow Six: Raven Shield]: Stereoscopic 3D works for the game only if played in windowed mode. [1318923]

[Multi-GPU]: After clicking the Multi-GPU balloon message to open the NVIDIA

Control Panel, pressing F1 does not open the Help. [1349589]

[stereoscopic 3D]: After switching the refresh rate switched to 120 Hz using the NVIDIA Control Panel and then running a 3D stereo application, the refresh rate automatically switches back to the previous refresh rate upon closing the 3D stereo app. [1343087]

[3D Surround], 3xGeForce 500/400 Series: When sending output to a fourth display outside of the GPU Surround group, the Surround resolution (3-wide) switches to a non-Surround resolution (singledisplay). [736859]

[Quad SLI] [GeForce GTX 295]: “SLI connector is missing” balloon pops up even if the SLI bridge connector is attached.[919269]

Is it possible to get M17XR1 version of these INFs?

On the Nvidia website there are drivers for notebook to download.

Is there no working driver for the M17XR1?

[ynot62]

no, none that work with alienware m17x R1. Tried these, tried to mod them. but never took... my lastest that does work are the 331.10 with someone elses modded inf
