    I'm intrested on how to do this on the D820.
    Where do i look for info on how to do this on my D820?

    **EDIT**
    Nevermind me asking about it for my D820.
    I found the drivers and tryed them. They are way buggy i found.Gameing proformance droped and Vista side bar keep flashing during game play. Then keep crashing my system.
    I went back to the Dell Nvs 110M drivers and all is great again.

    **** i tried doing it and selecting the hardware as a gefore 9400m which is thought to be the equivelant of the nvs160m and it just said its not compatable with vista ..... even though i used the driver and it seems to have updated it but its still quadro .... how annoying i used to get great results with these drivers .....
