Slow GMA 950 Drivers, Aero score = 2.5, used to be 3.2

#1 Post by nimba » Sun Aug 17, 2008 12:36 am

Hi guys,
I was hoping you could help me with this. My x60t (vista 32 sp1) has a GMA 950 which used to score over 3 in Aero performance category of the vista performance assessment. I'm using the latest video drivers from lenovo now and it scores 2.5. I don't remember which drivers I used to use before to get higher scores and I can't seem to find ones that will give me them. How do your machines score? What drivers are you using?

Also, aero performance isn't excellent. When using aero and scrolling webpages, I can notice that it is not as smooth as when using the vista basic interface. Do you also experience this?

thanks a bunch

I don't know if you've got System Restore enabled, but it should let you roll back to your older drivers even if you can't find them for download anywhere. Just be sure not to update them again.
