i think he mean XP have the advantage over 7 or vista... but i have to admit, intel 3150 is kinda better than my GMA950 it self, well, not clock wise, but it really has hardware tnl, which it doesnt rely on ur cpu to bog u down.... and i know that netbooks are crap for hardcore users, but i know how it feels to be not at home all the time to use my main desktop, so a netbook with insane battery time is what i really want now, not those gaming laptop which can make me suffer real bad on my old days with back pain..lol ^^....it's users choice what's all about...
about ur question TimmyP, im not really sure if there a driver for it, ur best bet is GMABooster, which have no solid proof that it work with GMA 950, but i donno if it will work with 3150, no official support that is...also im not sure if the intel 3150 is a children of the GMA3100 series, so making a modded driver from other driver is subjective..modders can make a driver from scratch, but it'll take a lonnng time ...gimme ur device id and i see what i can do .. cheers ^^ On Thu, Aug 19, 2010 at 8:39 AM, Espionage724 <[email protected]>wrote: > Now when you say huge differences in XP vs 7, what exactly do you > mean?
