Graphics Card

Hello.
At the moment i have a graphics card on my laptop. It is under display adapter but i dont know if they are seperate. Anyway here is the info.

Driver name: NVIDIA GeForce FX go 5100

Driver Date: 7/31/2003

Driver Version: 4.4.8.5.

This is very old and i want to be able to play games on my laptop. I went to the NVIDIA site adn looked for drivers there. It said mine was supported but when i clicked install it said something about it not being the right version. So i want to be able to update it so i can play games. Does any one know where i can find an update?

Need MUCH more specific info than this....too vague. What is the exact error message?

You understand that updating your video driver does not necessarily mean you will be able to play games with advanced graphics?
