    What's the best video driver (8400G) for a m1330 and Unreal Tournament III? Currently the game is un-playable on my m1330 (although UT2004 plays just fine).

    I just downloaded and installed the latest 32 bit Vista driver from Laptop Video 2 Go but I won't be able to test it until later.

    Use the driver on Dell's site- 174.31, works well for me.

    And if you don't see it on Dell's web site, you can get 174.31 for X64 (and x86) from LaptopVideo2Go.
