Because you're using an older GRAPHICS driver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistral1 Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Because you're using an older GRAPHICS driver? Good point but the HP ones are a couple of weeks older :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Marley Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Maybe you should try later drivers, like the 178 or 180 series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claw Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Why would one even care about Vista rating? :) I mean... If the system does perform better then what's the point? Microsoft has its own ways to benchmark your system and it's not said it will show the real performance of your lappy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
