I went on the Quake wars forum on gamespot and somebody told me to update my drivers, and i dont know how to do that...can someone help me out?

And when i try to play the QW demo this comes up: Image '_default' was generated with internal format 0x83f0 but GL returned 0x83f2

Shouldn't make a difference. It uses the same GPU and hardware features of other 6600s, except that its underclocked, and I'm not having any trouble running the game on my 6600GT.

If your having laggy mouse cursor problems, it's not your Nvidia drivers, it's because you are using dual monitors, like me.
