Raphie Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 156.69 is the best driver for Dell 8400m based systems so far. EVERYTHING works..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest doubleblack Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 That's great news, I installed it last night and will be running some tests later today...but I'm still waiting for someone to answer my question: Is there any advantage to still using the modded INF's instead of the WHQL one to get special tweaks or optimizations or something?

val580 Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 2 driver errors during day of defeat in 2 hours , not so bad. I prefer this over 165.01. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Both 156.73 and the 156.69 works equally good for me. I'll stick with these though becuase I don't like seeing an update in Windows Update list and don't want to hide it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gabriel Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 For a 8400M GS, this driver seens to be the better to me. Running COD4, it can do 50fps , ant the temperature stills in 80ºC. All the 169.XX push the temperature to 90ºC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
