      See below for the latest video driver:

      http://uk.download.nvidia.com/Windows/307.83/307.83-desktop-win7-winvista-64bit-international-whql.exe

      When installing, click Custom rather than Express, and there's an option to perform a clean install.  Check this box, and continue, rebooting when asked and after the install.

      Hope this helps.

        Exactly when and how do you get a "message" saying your video driver is out of date?

            EXACTLY when and how do you receive the message? What EXACTLY does it say and EXACTLY when and how does it appear? If possible, post a screen shot of the message.

              i start Big Fish Games - Games Manager, click to play Risk, get a Warning window - System Video driver is detected to be outdated, and the game will not run

              This is a desktop computer - correct? If so, go to the Nvidia website and allow it to scan your computer to find the drivers needed.
