    After researching and reading for a few weeks on this forum. Lurking actually lol. I decided to go with the NP 9262 (almost jumped on XPS 1730) I am stationed in Germany I ordered directly from Sager and my Notebook shipped from california on the 15th and I received it on the 19th fastest I ever received it.

    Well my setup is in my sig now. I also I spent the first day messing with the Vista tweaks provided in the guide on this forum. I currently have the 167.44 drivers that came provided. Does anyone have a recommendation for another set? I tried to get drivers from laptop2go.com but everytime I tried to install I get could not find hardware that matches or something of that sort. I did get the correct drivers version for Vista 64.

    Any help with this?
    Or any driver recommendations?

    Currently installed COD4 and Universe at War

    the drivers that you get from laptopvideo2go requires that you use a modified INF to correctly detect your mobile hardware.

    Read the sticky about updating drivers in the Gaming section.

    Congrats on the new beast BTW. :)

    I ran 3D Mark with those drivers but got a lower score for some reason than with 174.12 maybe I should give them a try again. But I wonder if it is the difference in CPU. Since you have the Quad and I have the Core 2 Duo
