Your driver version is positively ancient and I don't think nv Inspector can manage profiles for a driver that old. Upgrade the driver.

Which driver did you download? There appear to be separate installers for mobile and desktop products.

 

Cheers!

Once upon a time, it was recommended (potentially even enforced by modified device IDs) to get mobile drivers from the laptop OEM (i.e. if you bought a Dell laptop with an nVidia card, the generic nVidia driver updates wouldn't work and you'd have to go to Dell's website to get their latest Dell-specific driver release). This may no longer be true, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case it is.

IIRC, the website is capable of finding the right driver for your card. Looking at the website, I see a 300m series for laptops, v332.21, that supports GT 330M, which is here: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/71706/en-us.

 

Is that what you downloaded?

In that case, you better look on Sony's esupport website. Post the exact Model # of your laptop, I can try look it up for you. Or you can try...is this where you got the first driver?

Er... what? If it's not a laptop, what is it? And why does it have a video chipset made for mobile computers (i.e. laptops)?

Good qn by Bradley there, I was under the impression it was a laptop too. If you still have the invoice when you bought it, check the model # there. Other than that, if its Sony, there is likely to be a sticker somewhere around which will tell you the details. Failing all that, see if you can run the "Detect my Model" link on the website I gave you, altho I think it might be laptop only, but, it doesn't hurt to try.

The driver they have on Sony's site is almost four years old. I think you're out of luck unless you find an old version of nV inspector.

 

Cheers!

You can also do the trick I used to do with a Dell XPS laptop... just grab the generic nVidia drivers, find the driver .ini file, modify it so that it also applies to your video card's PCI vendor and device IDs, and install it. It may or may not work to some degree (in which case you'd simply roll back to the old version).

As long as it's some older version than the latest one I could try It out and see if it works cuz the only nv inspector I can find is the latest version
