but there are a few devices that requires great deal of power in order to operate?

maybe can try logitech premium hub.

A bit of management skills needed here. What are the devices?
We have 2 USB ports + 1 eSATA port. One for mouse, keyboards.. and what else?

I can only think of external HDD and printer/scanners. and that also don't need to be plugged in all the time, no?  blush.gif

if you use tactx keyboard then different story, it need 2 usb to work. doh.gif

around rm110 for that cooler.. yes. fit just nice but the AW is bigger slightly abit. i bought that cooler for the USB hub only.. cooling wise i dun think it help much as the fan is not that strong. but anyway im happy with my extra 3 usb hub. hehe

You guys have ever updated the NVidia driver for the GTX 260M from DELL Drivers and downloads on the support page? I was told to do this cos I have encountered 4 times while playing RE5 and Batman Arkham Asylum that my screen FREEZES while dialogue is going on, NEXT THING is a BLUE SCREEN Appearing saying 'Windos has tried to restart the Display Driver but failed, Check hardware driver etc...." and then the whole system reboots, Prompt asking if I want to starts windows in safe mode or normal, and they when windows starts, a small popup saying WINDOWS has just recovered from an unexpected Shutdown... WHAT GIVES? ARGH!!!
Will installing new driver update for the NVidia work? So many problems,.... I wonder if the M15x can really take the gaming? Or does the hit affect the GPU?

Well I seem to be the unluckiest amongst all. Damn. I was thinking the same thing too if the graphics are demanding on the chip, that not enuff power is supplied to it and it restarts the Lappie? Hmm.... DELL Asked me to install the new driver and see.

Well, Im not sure what driver version is mine, but the DELL Support told me to update it to the newest 186.47 for the GTX 260M for the M15x. Im not sure if this problem applies to the M17x or not.... but thanks for the reply .... smile.gif

Keeping Fingers crossed as I install the new driver.....

Ouh, come on. Be fair to the M15x, its not that bad. Maybe it's just the QC of Dell giving out faulty hardwares. just my 2c though.
I have not experienced any major problems with it, YET.lol
