Few months ago I bought a Laptop mainly for work, the laptop is a Compaq presario f500, which came with Vista :. I never expected it to play any games at all, but I would have thought it would play World of Warcraft only the problem is, the frame rate is so bad, I even have trouble on the login screen where the 2 flags are waving, it is really slow. I updated the laptop with the HP Update software and that updated the video drivers also and I have done some vista tweaks thanks to tips from youtube, it helped a little.

The card is a 6100 GO and what I want to do is use nvidia Forceware drivers, you know the standard ones they release for desktop computers, but it says on there site I need to update though the manufacturer (Compaq HP). So is this the only way?
 
Ok now I just tried installing the drivers, did everything it said replaced INF and half way through the install of the driver I got a BSOD and now when I restart the laptop it gives a BSOD so it wont even start windows anymore. Vista is trying to do a repair right now by restoring it to an earlier date
