Dell M2300 cannot play games

So I have a :

T7500 2.2 ghz
4 GB Ram (using 3.5GB only cause of XP x86)
NVIDIA Quadro FX 360M 256MB TurboCach

I am trying to play Street Fighter 4, and it cannot handle medium settings. Has anybody else having problems playing games on it?

 

you may need to try and use laptopvideo2go drivers to fool it into thinking its a geforce card and not a quadro that should give you some extra performance

why not try using win7 ? its more modern and has better built in support for newer cpu's and chipsets such as what you are using

and obviously visit dell and make sure you have the newest drivers for everything try lowering aa and af and just tweaking the settings to get playable performance

ofcourse your gpu might not be powerfull enough to play it atall but no harm in trying

 

Thanks for the response. The gpu is not strong enough, it has 128 mb dedicated and 256 mb shared. The machine is not meant for gaming.

But I will admit the m2300 is a very good work/business laptop though! I have XP Pro x86 on it, I am planning to install Windows 7 Pro x64 soon, I been just lazy recently.

 

no problem , have a look here

very handy with plenty of info of mobile cards

but this is what you will be looking at "click"

your card can do crysis on medium at 10 fps apparently , i would say if you really wanted to play the game you could lower any fancy stuff in thee video options of the game , and due to your low gpu memory which seems to take a chunk of slower than usual gpu system ram you would need to play on lower resolution

no harm in trying . or even some overclocking with coolbits , some mobile cards can be pushed a fair bit and others cant

 

Update:

I am now able to play Street Fighter 4 at 60 FPS without any problems. Most of the settings are set on HIGH. The main thing users have set is the “Variable Frame Rate” to “Off”. Now I am pretty sure some hardcore gaming enthusiasts would not like that but realistically the average-casual gamer would not mind having the setting off. I am planning to try more games soon.

Also I installed the latest drivers from the NVIDIA website and installed the latest DirectX.


FYI: This works on XP Pro x86 and 7 Pro X64 .
