I was able to find what files needed to be changed to allow mobile support. If you look in the 44 driver, you can find what needs to be in the config files for the newer ones. The ones that should be changes are the setup, and the modes. there is also a nv4_.... something is where most of the changes need to be made.

I haven't had any problems with the driver that I can notice.

AQM 3 scores under 44.8x drivers (from AW site)
FPS: 10.94
GFX: 1221
CPU: 5,281
T: 10,941

AQM3 with 52.70 (beta drivers from guru3d that I modded)
FPS: 15.26
GFX: 1,827
CPU: 4,624
T: 15,264

I'm not really sure whats up with the CPU decrease, either its a difference in what I had running in the background, or the drivers eat a bit more CPU. I haven't had any stability problems, and most games get a boost. Here's a screen shot to verify that it worked:

IRQs (Interrupt Requests) are used by devices in a computer to get attention from the CPU. A device will send a signal over the IRQ line to the processor to request clock-cycles for the device. With a few exceptions (PCI and USB devices I believe) all devices in a computer need to have a unique IRQ and not share them with other devices since it may cause problems.
IRQ: 16 simply means that the FX5600 is using IRQ-line 16 to get the CPU's attention.

*Is confused*

Is the T: after the scores supposed to represent total?

I'm just curious because I'm scoring more than double that with the Aquamark benchmark

It's probably me... as you were

Yeah thats total. Which video card are you using though? if it is the NVIDIA card this is about right for a similar equiped system. I would have gotten higher had I got the 3.2, but I only have the 3GHz.
