    sorry to make another post about a game again, but couldnt find my old one lol.
    does anyone play nba live 08 on their 1530? for some reason, when i play on mine it is really laggy even on low settings. but i am able to play any other game smoothly i installed on it so far. (BF2, NFS pro street, etc.) im not sure what the problem is. specs are in sig. thanks alot!

    NBA Live 08 is a poorly coded game.

    Just to make sure though, get the latest drivers for your video card from www.laptopvideo2go.com

    the latest is 167.45 right? the list doesnt have the 8600m gt tho.

    im running on forceware verision : 174.31 right now

    is that good or bad?

    EDIT: looks like the 167.45 driver fixed it! thanks a lot!
