    I'm having some trouble with a game, and a friend told me to download & install the latest driver updates for my laptop.

    I'm not so sure what to download exactly, I've got the M11X R2 i5 CPU (non-overclocked)with 3GB RAM and standard video card I believe. Sorry I'm not so great wih computer so I'm confused as to what I download, I would greatly appreciate the help.

    The Dell support site has all of the drivers relevant to the m11x. It's probably a good idea to make sure everything is up to date.

    The most important one for you is probably the video card driver. The most recent on can be found here on the nvidia site.

    Also what game is it that's giving you problems? Some games just don't play nice.
