    Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 with the X1300 graphics card. I recently installed Flight Simulator X and notice major stuttering when in the 2d-****pit, so i reckon its a graphics driver that needs updating. I looked on the Dell website (since apparently the ATI website doesnt support dell or a number of other manufacturers) and the driver version i have is 8.261 dated 23/05/2006. Is there a more recent driver available that supports Dell or a way to install the ones from the ATI website without it telling me it doesnt support my hardware.

    Thanks
    Jordan

    I think its that flight sim x is a hefty game that needs a really decent graphics card.
