You're taking a new laptop out on a gig without thoroughly testing it first?

Suicide!

As for the video error, you need to give us more info to work with .......
 
I know...dumb!
I have a samsung, it has a NVIDIA card in it.
I see the Intel integrated card one when I go into VDJ, Config, Video...I see Intel Integrated, but not NVIDIA. At first it was saying "error on video driver" but now it works.

I can get my videos to work, but i want to use the dedicated card, not intel integrated one.

Thanks!!!!
 
Windows 7 also....
 
Here's my suggestion:

1) find out which model the Nvidia card is
2) download and install current drivers from Nvidia website

I have an NVidia on my Dell Inspiron and was having an issue with the videos overlaying and flashing constantly...come to find out the a driver/firmware update was released after I bought the laptop and I was not aware of it. When having the up-to-date drivers and latest firmware for the card it worked.

I use XP so I know nothing about Win7 so I can't help ya from that standpoint.
 
Some companys also add there own drivers into the mix, so if you get a message saying drivers not found on the nvidia site you know why, just head over to your manufactuers site, remember to get all the info off the bottom of the lappy beforehand ie: make, model, serial number etc. It's a lot more convenient going prepared.

Windows 7 if using a projector it will ask "do you want to connect to a projector" (if using vga) you'll find that in the display/settings.

If your still having problems give me a shout. I'll see if I can help.
 
I have just had a similar problem today.

Been working (6 hours a day) no problems. Then this morning fired it up and video selection in window mode I get 'Error in the video driver' message.

I have had this system stable since Dec 2010. Why it failing now.

Sony Vaio VPCF1
Nvidia GeForce 425M
Windows 7 64 bit
any ideas
 
Did you try uninstalling the driver via the device manager? If not, I would try that, reboot, reinstall the driver. This happene to me one time with my dell that uses an nvidia card. I uninstalled the driver and reinstalled it and it worked.
 
Do you have DivX9 installed? If not install it.
