When I view available updates, I right click on the update and select "view
details" which shows me the following info
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update type: Important

This driver was provided by NVIDIA for support of NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE
nForce 430

More information:
http://winqual.microsoft.com/support/?driverid=2019

Help and Support:
http://support.microsoft.com/select/?target=hu
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When i click the link provided for more information, it takes me to a "help
and how-to page" but provides no additional information as to exactly what
the update does or what issue it addresses. In XP, I could get a brief
synopsis of what the update was for, it seems in Vista I cannot. Is there a
way to get the actual description of what the update is for or does?

Play safe.- Don't D/L drivers from Microsoft updates, unless are drivers for
a Microsoft product,

Go to Nvidia web pages
http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp

Good luck

Hi there,

Do not update a driver if your hardware is working fine: if it ain't broke
do not tryto "FIX "it.

Best regards,
Michel Denie
