Thanks for the reply. I was wondering about 3D accelerated stuff with the above chipsets. I should have made that clearer in the original post. I know that normally Nvidia is great, but the Dell models I'm looking at have the NForce chipset and I hear thats problematic sometimes. I was really unsure if 3D stuff worked with ATI mobility or the Intel Xtreme setups.
Thanks! :-)
Nforce is an AMD chipset..
Last time I checked, dell did not sell any AMD systems at all...
I have a Dell 5150, and I have the nvidia driver working fine on mdk9.2 for its 64mb Geforce FX5200.
I have sound, I have wireless, in fact I have pretty much everything bar the dumbass modem that has no modern driver.
