    Hi

    I just bought myself a brand new Acer laptop called the 5930.

    The problems I got with this is that some games goes REALLY slow, I cant even run GRID at lowest possible graphics.. It really feels like the drivers for the gpu are all screwed up. The problem is, that it seems like NO-ONE has ever heard of this laptop, and ofcourse then there is no hint, tips, tricks or any drivers whatsoever. I hate Acer for not having any drivers for this comp at their webpage so I can install a brand new 64bit vista.

    So I want this computer to run faster in some games (seems like some runs fine though), I want to switch off the damn mediatouchbuttons as I keep touching them unwanted (and the drivers arent the same as on 5920 so I cant just turn the buttons off either), and I want to be able to overclock the cpu just a tad, but no progs seems to support this new cpu :)

    Btw, does anyone know whats the difference between the T-series and the P-series?

    The spec:
    P7350 centrino 2 dualcore
    Geforce 9600-GT
    3gig ram
    320gig hdd

    This new comp even got e-sata and hd webcam.. Love it :)
