Is it possible to upgrade video drivers for Windows 7

I suspect the answer is no and I will have to wait until the next release of Parallels Tools includes new drivers but I thought I would pose the question anyways.

Basically, I need to run a Windows 7 application which needs the latest beta NVIDA drivers. I am running on a 15" rMBP w/NVIDIA GT 650M. The application does not work with the current drivers in Parallels 9.0.23062 rev 920702.

Thanks,

The virtual hardware in a Parallels virtual machine has no relation to your machine's real hardware. While your rMBP has an NVIDIA GT 650M, your Parallels virtual machine only has a Parallels Display Adapter.

To use the application, you need to boot your Mac into Windows using Boot Camp, or you need to use virtualization software that can take over the physical graphics card (using Intel VT-d) which may not exist or work with your computer or graphics chip...
