Thread Starter 
After a format/reinstall of windows, and installation of Tony's drivers:

3dMark05 -- 6805

I haven't run 3dmark06 yet. Any tips on squeezing a couple hundred more out of the score?

I think the modded nVidia drivers listed in the sticky thread in the XPS/M170 section allow it.

XPS Gen 2 and M170 just gorgeous laptops, I miss mine

After the m170 the laptop gaming market just took a drop in performance, first the 8800s now the 9800s its just smoking laptops ...It was great when my Gen2 was equally as fast as best desktop on market.

Those were the days...

You can still cash in on nostalgia with the M6300 but the performance will never be the same again.
