    Hi all, I upgraded my graphic drivers to Intel's latest (7.14.10.1283) and ran the Windows Vista WinSAT tool. Here are my results with a 5400 RPM hard drive, 2Gb (2x 1Gb) RAM and the X3100.

    It'll be interesting to see how people's machines with slight variations (HD, RAM, GFX etc) perform compared to mine.
