Since I don't have a clue how to tweak my 9400m to the fullest of its ability's I thought I make a thread so we can discuss the latest drivers, flash beta 10, best settings for optimal performance ... etc
Link to the latest Driver for the 9400M, 9500M, and N10M-GS Link to adobe flash player 10 *beta* adds GPU-acceleration for smoother online HD videos
* Note- if anyone thinks I should add something, let me know and I will updat
in the m1720 config page for my country, dell is offering the following graphics cards:
128MB NVIDIA® GeForce® 8400M GS [add $160]
256MB NVIDIA® GeForce® 8600M GT [add $250]
are these better than the 7950GTX?
im new to the forum...
i just got a dell vostro 1510 with
t8300 2.4ghz
256mb nvidia 8400gs
250gb hdd
my user index is only 3.5
n now aftr researching the forums i got 2 know that there is a huge difference in
these 2 graphics cards...n i want to play games like crysis n assasins creed....n i dint know tht merely model nos can make so much of difference..
so is there any way i can change my graphic card to 8600gt...?
i just had my motherboard replace coz not getting any display and the tech support was trying to convince me that is not the issue with the 8600gt on my m1530 cuz im not getting any vertical lines.
furthermore, they told me (which i called 2 other tech rep to confirm this, which added up total of 3) that dell has asked dell to make them new non-defective 3d card on new material
Not had my lappy long but just wanted to know what head room these cards have?
Current speeds below, just wanted to know what others had overclocked their's to with Rivatuner? Also the best application to monitor card temps too?
Core Clock = 475
Shader Clock = 950
Memory Clock = 702
I've just bought a DELL XPS M1530 and I'm so worried about the error of Geforce 8600GT Video Card that DELL and nVIDIA has reported!
So would you mind giving me a suggest of updating new driver for my video card? If in case I should update my graphic card, please share me the lastest driver for my Geforce 8600GT.
so i got some good responses (thanks again slowdown117) from my previous thread about the temps on my 8600gt soaring as of late, and i figured the chipset was biting the dust. but turns out she still had some life in her.
decided i didnt want to wait on an order of arctic silver 5, so i went down to compusa and picked up some compressed air and a tube of ocz freeze thermal extreme conductivity compound. the reviews online for it are solid, and it was only 5 bucks, so i was sold ...
ive change the thermal paste of my m1530, before closing the lid up, i forgot to plug in the fan socket, thus leaving my laptop without the fan on. After a while, when i felt the lappy is hot, suddenly i realized i forgot to plug in the fan socket.
however, the damage has been done, according to gpu-z, my gpu temp went up to 93c, and it took 30 minutes for it to increase from 80c to 93c.
I've got a new Dell Vostro 1500 with the Nvidia 8600M GT video card, and when I add a 2nd monitor to my display, the resolution of my laptop monitor drops to 1280x800. Anyone had this problem and know how to fix it? The 2nd monitor is an AOC 22LVWk, haven't tried it with any others yet.

glossy widescreen 15.4 WLED display (1440x900) as a choice, which is what I want, but dell.ca doesn't. When I view the system specs though, that choice is listed as on option.

my laptop vostro 3460 won't boot any more. When I turn it on it loads the Dell logo (I suppose it passes the POST) but then it just shows a black page. It could be anything, but I guess that it may have something to do with Windows 8 and the UEFI system. I also would be quite happy to install linux mint and get rid of Windows, but I don't know how to change the boot priority order.
So my questions are:
1 is it a hardware issue ? if not, can I solve my problem easily ?
2 how can I change the boot priority order, to install mint ?

Can a dell lcd screen work in non-dell laptops, or do they use a non-standard connection?
View 3 Replies View Relatedwhen i first got my dell inspiron and it was all good. when i set the monitor to shut off after 1 minute of being idle, it did and would not turn on unless someone moved the mouse of pressed a button. however, after i reformatted, the computer monitor would shut off after 1 min but soon afterwards it turns on again by itself, then it goes off again, then it remains on permanently. i recently formatted my laptop again and this problem persists. anyone knows whats sup? im using xp ftw... and my configurations are the same as it was before the reformats so idk whats wrong.

Where can I find a replacement fan for the dell studio 1537. I believe the brand is a forcecon. I just want the fan, not the heatsink.

View 9 Replies View RelatedDell Inspiron 6000 notebook to boot up and stay unfrozen long enough for me to retrieve my files, and put them on my tower pc.
In a nutshell, I got this Inspiron about 3 years ago- I currently have it connected to an external monitor, because my wife dropped a heavy object on the screen last year, and destroyed said screen.
Just this past week, I turned it on, and it started getting really slow. Finally, it got to a point where now, when I turn it on, it boots up, it goes to the desktop, the desktop icons all appear, and within a minute or two, it just kind of slows down, and eventually freezes up, and the hard drive indicator light quits doing anything. It does not respond to anything, and the only way to restart it, is to hold the power button down until it resets.
If anybody knows of a thread already on this site, regarding this problem, please point me in the right direction, as I tried the search function, and did not come up with anything.
and one or two other things, since it initially started having problems, sometimes, I will get two "missing module" error boxes pop up- and also, while it is booting, the screen flashes black for about 3 seconds, and then comes back on and continues to load.
Thank you very much to anybody who could possibly help me out of this jam. I really do not plan on using this laptop (or notebook) anymore, if and hopefully when, I get my files off of it.
And that is the other problem, I can not attempt to boot up in safe mode, as my screen is busted up, and it will not output to my external monitor, when I hit the f key while it is starting. I did make a couple different bootable cds, but they do not seem to do anything.
I enjoy gaming, although I wouldn't consider myself a "hardcore" gamer. I currently have 1024 MB of RAM (2 x 512) and I am looking to upgrade soon. My options are as follows:
- Dell certfied RAM
- PNY RAM
- Kingston RAM
- Corsair RAM
Of course, for the Dell RAM, I have to wait for the shipping, but it is one of the cheaper ones. However, any of the other three I can pick up at Best Buy (which is more convenient). Can someone point out the pros and cons of each? It seems the PNY is a great buy, but could there be performance problems compared to the others? And why is the Kingston so expensive?
