    What drivers are you using?

    I'm using the ones provided by Dell and it lags incredibly even while moving a simple firefox window.


    thanks

    Been using ForceWare 163.15 under XP Pro SP2 since my initial re-installation last summer. No problems at all; 3DMark05 somewhere around 3000.

    Used ForceWare 160.05 under Vista Business while I wrote a review; it offered similar benchmark performance but did not let me resume from standby.

    EDIT: Sirius, did you upgrade your D830 to the T9300 or are they shipping with Penryns now?

    I upgraded it to the T9300.

    are you suggesting that I use ForceWare 160.05?

    thanks
