    Bought the demo at Best Buy and had to install Windows 7 operating system and drivers to get rid of their looping demo software. Ran windows update fully.

    Device manager shows standard vga graphics with no conflicts.

    Has an AMD 6 processor and ati graphics. I can't find a ati graphics driver. The Samsung site only has Intel graphics driver and it will not install.

    I was hoping I could get better graphics. Only goes up a couple notchs above 800x600.

    Any suggestions would be freatly appreciated.

    Samsung wouldn't ship exactly the same model with two different graphics options. The specs for that model don't mention Nvidia graphics.

    Anyway, if you are sure that you need the Nvidia driver, try the one here.
