    So i finally went through the hassle of getting windows xp on my inspiron 1520
    and decided to run 3Dmark06 to compare it to scores i have seen around the forums. Im using forceware 101.28 drivers and used rivatuner to up the clock slightly to 525/450 from the standard 475/400.
    This was my result:

    Im not an expert as u probably realise, but this score is ok i thought.
    Seems like getting over 4k would be fairly easy with a few tweaks.
    Any comments?

    Forgot to add my 1520 specs:
    Win Xp pro sp2
    T7500 2.2 Core 2 Duo
    3gig ram
    8600M GT 256mb

    What were your settings on 3DMark, run w/defaults and post.

    Edit: OK I see 1440X900 now, can you run on default? so we can compare?
