    Where can I get non-Dell video drivers for the dual 8700's?

    I have a link http://www.notebookforums.com/thread206047.html but none of them mention the 1730 just the 1710.

    What's the current performance version?

    I would put this in the 1730 owner lounge but as it complete mess of a thread it would get lost.

    Thanks any help.

    If you have the BluRay drive, remember you will need WHQL certified drivers for BluRay playback to work. Most of the ones on LaptopVideo2Go are non-WHQL, which is why I dont use them.
    Also I dont like using modified desktop drivers, I prefer to wait for the proper mobile drivers instead. Dell Performance Driver 174.31 runs all the games Ive thrown at my system perfectly anyway, so Im happy ;)
