I Can't Improve Video Quality In Games
« on: October 05, 2010, 08:44:08 AM »
Hi, I just recently re-formatted my computer and I'm pretty sure I installed and updated all of the correct drivers, yet whenever I play a game, the graphics aren't as good as they should be and the button saying "player detail" or whatever, is stuck on low and I can't change it.  I know my computer can handle these games at the high quality levels because I've played them in the past without a problem.  Any help would be much appreciated...

Dells are indeed finicky about Drivers...
Travel to the Dell site and enter your Service Tag # for the correct ones.

And make sure that you've installed the chipset driver
