QuestionXPS laptop display driver problems Pin

I have a M1730 laptop. This laptop is a replacement of a M1710 that overheated. Dell replaced it even though the guarantee was expired.

On the phone, they asked me if I wanted to keep the same configuration. I said yes, notably Windows XP and bluetooth.

They shipped the laptop with Windows Vista Business, no bluetooth. Mad | :mad:

That is not all. I would often get a "Display driver stopped responding...." message. Especially if I am playing a 3-d game.

I updated the driver with Nvidia's latest (I already go the Dell's latest). 3D problem disappeared, but if I boot the laptop on the battery-only mode, the driver crashes and a re-install (driver) is necessary. This does not happen if I fire up the laptop from Hibernation.

With both Nvidia's and Dell's latest driver SLI is not working.

I did a hardware diagnostics and everything seems fine. Except the tests do not seem to test the 3D functionality. It seems to be a software (probably Vista-related Wink | ;) ).

So, I have 2 questions:

1- How can I test the 3D functionality. I would prefer something that can run without the OS.
2- Does anyone know what the problem is?
