    I own a V2S B-1 purchased in October 2007. I'm still using the original video driver.
    I've been to the Asus site and have searched for a driver that will use Direct X 10.1 to it's fullest.
    I can't find one. Has Asus released a new 10.1 video driver for any of the other notebooks?
    Thanks for your time...

    The ASUS V2SB-1 has a GeForce 8600M GS which is a Directx10 card like every other Nvidia GPU at the momment. So in other words it won't make full benefit of Dx10.1 which it was released with Windows Vista Service Pack 1. The new ATi HD 3 series however support Dx10.1.
