It came with 97.46 drivers when I got my laptop but I don't see anywhere in the forceware menu's to overclock or even look at the temperature. I was just wondering, that since it's a mobile card, do they keep those features out of mobile drivers? Would there be anyway to get around that even or is there newer drivers I can update to? I am running Vista so it's hard to find compatible drivers but I am up for suggestions. Thank you!

There's a hack for installing newer Forceware drivers on a Go, I believe something to do with modifying the INF file before install. However, I tried this about six months ago with an older Go, and while it appeared to work with the video, it screwed up my laptop...for example, closing the lid drained the battery instead of going into hibernation, that sort of thing. So I wouldn't recommend it. And don't worry about not being able to overclock, it's already hot enough in there, no sense burning it up.
