    Hi, I am new here. :)

    I got new 7720g (T9300 - 2,5ghz duo, 9500mgs) a month ago, and still trying to solve it's problem - it has very low fps in 3d games.
    My desktop (2,3 duo/7600) produces more fps in all games I tested!
    I tried Vista and Xp, a lot of different video drivers and bios firmware versions and had no luck :(

    Can anyone help me please?

    ps. sorry for bad english

    Since you have been switching between XP and Vista....have you removed all the bloatware..i.e. have you done a clean install..??

    What driver have you installed from laptopvideo2go? 17x.xx? If yes, try 169.09 it's the most stable..
