    thats strange . At 1920x1200 with everything maxxed and no AA i got 65fps and with AA on i got i think 48 . First was an A second was a B. Its your CPU holding you back though so i guess that explains it .

    I'm glad to say that I'm getting the same so I must be doing something right. ;) Any idea what the M17x boys and their 280's are getting?

    Yeah but that was based on the Econoline version of Vantage and thats why the score was so Skewed. He should be getting around 9-10k id imagine on the GPU end of things. Wish i could tell ya first hand :(...................

    I believe Alex got the 9.9s working with the 4850s. Maybe try and mob mod them instead of using the Win7 ones in this case . Might want to PM and ask him .

    Grab the new Vista64 [desktop] 9.9 drivers, turn Vista UAC off, restart, then run the 9.9 driver installer. This will extract all the driver files to the ATI directory on your HDD, then just run mobility modder 1.2.1.0 on them. Once you've done this you can run them from the folder; it will ask your permission to install 'unverified' drivers; accept, and they should install fine :)
