    Assuming that your laptop/GPU is the same, I think this is what you're looking for **56k Warning**

    I just ordered the same laptop you bought. (except for the 12 cell)

    It's supposed to ship by the 22nd. :)

    I just want to know if the 7400 can handle Halo 1 at 1280x800?

    The source engine games, CoD2 and WoW will run fine at mid settings, BF2 might have to pulled down a bit. The only game that will really give you trouble is Halo 2. It's a bad port and may not run acceptably on the older Go 7400.

    I have Halo 2 on my iMac running Vista in Bootcamp. It's horrible. My iMac has an X1600 and 2.5GB RAM, and I can't get Halo 2 to run more than 30FPS with 2xAA, 1280x800, and graphics on "low".

    I really hope they release some performance updates for Halo 2 Vista.
