D630 Intel Slow Screen Refresh

Hello all.

 

I've just got my D630 running with 10.6.8. Everything is working well, nearly as well as my old MacBook. However I find the screen refresh a little annoying. When dragging windows, scrolling web pages etc its not smooth, there is ghosting/jerkyness.

 

Does anyone know if this can be fixed?

 

PS. I've set Graphics Enabler using Chameleon, Quartz Extreme is also enabled.

 

Thanks

Its the Intel 965 chipset so it has the X3100 integrated GPU. The screen res is 1280 x 800.

 

I also have a D420 with GMA950 GPU running OSX 10.6.3. When dragging windows and scrolling web sites its nice and smooth. With the higher spec D630 its jerky.

It seems you have the same spec as mine.

 

Yes. I have also found my D520 with GMA950 GPU more responsive and smoother as compared to the X3100 GPU.

 

What bios version are you on for your D630 at the moment?

It's noticable. When dragging a windows it feels like it sticks, a bit like seeing individual frames of an animation.

 

I can put up with the window dragging. It's the website scrolling thats driving me nuts.

 

Ive seen the same thing on Windows machines with incorrect graphics drivers.
