How well does it run on crysis and other games with the regular drivers?

Same performance pretty much. But if you want a good performance boost, I suggest the 177.39, I just modified the inf and I'm currently testing the PhysX demos! Uploaded the inf, simply replace the old one in the driver directory by this one.

WHOOOo!!! I got a P-6860 FX!! This laptop is awesome. All i really have done is turn it on :P. Is it really necessary to make a backup for it when there is a backup partition on the hard drive?

Anyone know if the P-6860FX is 64-bit Vista? The unit has 4GB of memory in it, so I assume so, but I would like confirmation. Im looking for one with 32-bit Vista, mainly because I already run 64-bit Vista Ultimate on my desktop and I'll be using this laptop mainly for FFXI, which doesnt play nicely with Vista x64 and a GeForce 8 series card.
Also, in terms of laptop graphics cards, would the 8800M GTS be better than a 9600M GT/GS?

it's 64 bit, but you can load 32 bit on it. just do a driver/app back up then use your 32/64 bit os cd that comes with the laptop

Oh, so it comes with 32-bit OS disc? Im planning to get the laptop through Best Buy, since I work in Geek Squad (dont laugh...lol), and I can get my employee discount on it. Maybe you just don't get the option with other Gateway laptops. I mean, as far as I have seen when I set up new Gateway laptops for customers, the only disc I see in the box is the 32-bit OS disc, since 64-bit isn't that popular yet. But yea, in any case I play on doing a complete reformat of the computer out of the box. Too much **** comes on them. I feel bad giving customers a machine with a bunch of trial crap on it lol.
