This is very anyone who knows how to install the forceware drivers from laptopvideo2go properly,

I want to play COD5 on my MBP, but I can only get 15 fps with everything on low with the latest drivers from nvidia (186.61 i think) so I obviously need a driver update.

I downloaded the latest 191.56 driver from laptopvideo2go but I have no idea to go about installing it. My old drivers are wiped.

Thanks

The last time I did that, I just got the .ini from LV2G, extracted the nVidia driver installer into a folder, replaced the stock .ini, then ran setup.exe.

You usually need to get the modded INF as well, and dump it into the expanded driver folder on your desktop before running the installer.
See this: Modded INF
