M1210 & Intel 945GM drivers downloaded from Dell
I have a new M1210 with the Intel 945GM pre-loaded with driver version 6.14.10.4446.
I downloaded two newer drivers from the Dell support site (R135765 and RR148504) for the Intel with version numbers 6.14.10.4634 and 6.14.10.4764 and tried installing them. They install fine, but there seems to be a problem in detecting all the features of the M1210 built-in display.
When I click on the information button in the Intel Graphics Control Panel, driver version 4446 will show display serial number LCD58e3, DDC2 supported, Gamma 3.54. The supported modes show 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, and 1280x800. Under the Power Management Section, Standby Mode, Suspend Mode, and Active Off Mode all say supported.
With the two newer versions (4634 and 4764), the Gamma shows 2.2, the supported modes is blank, and the other Power Management settings say, "Not Available". Is there a problem with the newer drivers in supporting the M1210 LCD screen?

Personally I prefer the Intel drivers available from their website. You should probably try those out instead.XPS M140

NEC DVD±RW (±R DL)
