    Noticed there isnt much M1210 stuff on these forums now that M1330 is out, lol, for M1210 owners like me with GF7400 Go, i noticed a new driver on their site (v156.65): http://support.ap.dell.com/support/...-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=6&fileid=231066

    Has anyone installed it yet? any known fixes etc? my current version runs fine but if anyone can confirm that this new one is better, ill install this one.

    Sorry if this has been posted before

    well you can get new drivers on laptopvideo2go.com which are much more updated than on dell's websites (because nvidia doesn't release laptop drivers so laptopvideo2go modifies the drivers for them to work on laptops)

    I find it hard to get Laptopv2g to work, it keeps wanting the dell specific drivers (since every 7400go is different).

    Thanks for the heads up on the official dell drivers. The Vista updated drivers ruined my performace on some applications and DWM.
