    Just received my Dell Vostro 1500 yesterday and everything seems to work just fine, exept one thing. The dark colors in games are completely black.

    Here's are screenshot from World In Conflict:

    Look at the trees, they're black one side and normal on the other. What's wrong and how do i fix this?

    Specs:
    2.2Ghz dual core
    2gb 667Mhz
    Gf8600m GT 256mb

    Im running the game on the 169.04 drivers från Laptopvideo2go


    I would really appreciate your help, thanks.

    What settings are you using in-game? I would suggest putting the settings to high, it could be that at low settings the trees are rendered in less detail and look miffed. It's also possible that your gamma settings need to be adjusted.
