.TuG.-Breaker Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 the specs seem good to me, but the price is quite high in my opinion mate maybe ebaying it will make you find it cheaper? its just that expensive cause its from dell!

.TuG.Tweak Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 (edited) Thats a bit steep that mate. You can get an 8800 system for less I think? http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/system/Gamer_Xplorer_X5-C90_Pro_Notebook/ Edited September 24, 2008 by .TuG.Tweak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.TuG.h0 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 ive got the same lappie. got a bunch of options. It's got a handy remote. I'm having a bunch of problems installing xp on it though. I found laptopreviews.com or something like that forums which was useful for the driver packages but I download Udi's driver pack to convert it to xp but i either get a BSOD or it just doesnt detect the slipstreamed driver for the sata hard drive so I can't install xp (says it can't detect the hard drive.) can anyone help?

.TuG.Benny Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 just received it and Vista Ultimate preinstalled. I will be playing with multi boots over the next week or so. I'll let you know how I get on. All drivers should be available via Dell site as they do offer the same rig with XP downgrade pre loaded. If needed I'll phone my account manager over at Dell, I'm sure he'll get me the right details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
