    I got a used E1705 with Core Due T2250, 7900GS 256MB Video Card, 160GB 5200 RPM hard drive, 2.5GB Memory running Windows XP Media 2005. I am using one of laptopvideo2go drivers. I ran 3DMark06, the score was around 2810. Is it normal or it should be higher. If it can be higher, what can I do to achieve better score? Any help is appreciated.

    I think that's about right. Is your Go 7900 GS overclocked?

    Also, you might want to try the 91.47 or 94.24 driver set.

    It is not overclocked. How much can I overclock the Dell 7900GS version? I think I am using 16x driver right now. Which one do you prefer: 91.47 or 94.24?

    Thanks
