    Greetings everyone!

    I just purchased an XPS M1530 for work with the following specs:

    4GB RAM (3.6GB registers)
    160GB 7200RPM Hard Drive
    8600GT Video Card
    2.6GHz Core 2 Duo Processor
    Windows Ultimate

    I just did a clean install of Windows and I am currently on the Standard Video Driver. Any suggestion on which Forceware driver is the most stable?

    Thank you!

    Try the Beta drivers on Nvidia's page, they seem to be alright right now. It won't really make a difference though, any Nvidia drivers should do for now...
