For apparently uncertain reason the NVDIA Graphics Update 2009 is been removed from both Apple’s website and software update system just after two days of its release. The update was released to provide improved cursor movement and also set to boost HD video playback on the new MacBook Pro’s running NVIDIA’s GeForce 9600M graphics cards as well Mac systems that use GeForce 7300 GT chips.
Mean while Apple discussion forums have been littered with cases of notebook graphic issues. One of the Macbook Pro user, reported issues in a Mac Pro thread, saying,
My new MacBook Pro display screen is blinking or flickering every few minutes now. I’ve only noticed it when I’ve switched to the integrated 9400M graphics processor. I don’t recall seeing any blinks when using the discrete 9600M GPU.
However, other user are claiming the same problems but blaming on the software saying,
My external display (lacie electron) goes black 4/5 times in hour, for 5sec each time, (then) go back to normal state… under bootcamp it’s PERFECT!!! No issue with the external display!!
