    Hi guys!

    Just got my new beautiful lappy yesterday, and I'm so happy with it!
    But i do have some important questions to ask the ones who understand and/or own this model. My OS is vista ultimate 32 bit and the driver for the GPU is 169.09 from laptopvideo2go.com. it enabled me to play Crysis on 1920 * 1200 (without any lag, AA off, everything else on medium), but it appears that the textures take long time to load on the level when you're in the actual play time (suddenly more trees, bushes etc. pop out of nowhere). it happens only on DX9 mode, as I recall..
    Does anybody know what I'm talking about? what can I do? is there any update for that? should I download DX9, and will it affect the DX10 on my lappy?
    - another thing.. on Bioshock I have the same issue on DX9 mode.
    the game play has some lag on 1920 * 1200, when crysis run better.

    Thank you in advace for you're help!
