    Has anyone tried it on an m1530 with an 8600GT? How did it run, and on what settings?

    Check out srtest.com (in internet explorer). From what I have read, R6V2 runs about the same as the first Rainbow Six ... it has better coding than the first one. According to srtest.com, the 8600 should be able to run the game; the card meets recommended specs.

    It runs fine on my PC with whatever the default graphics settings for the game are.

    Plays fine on the M1530 even with AA. No lag at all, so I'm not even monitoring fps.
