Moreover, notebooks powered by the same OSes (except for Vista) and including a Quadro K5000M, K4000M, or K3000M GPU are also supported by NVIDIA’s 309.08 update.

As for version 341.44, this release is suitable for desktops running one of the 32- or 64-bit variants of Windows Vista, 7, 8, and 8.1 OSes, or one of the Server 2008 R2, 2008 64-bit, 2012, or 2012 R2 platforms.
