Thanks, my machine is running pretty well at the moment, but I might give that one a go anyway. Will report back with results

Couple of questions relating to the trackpad. Firstly, in most peoples experience which is the best trackpad driver to use when running through EDP setup? I've tried all of them and have found VoodooPS2 to be the most 'stable', but the trackpad is really quite slow, and the speed in the VoodooPS2 prefpane is turned up full. Also, I know multitouch scrolling is a bit hit-and-miss from what I've read on here, but it would be great to get it working. I've had no luck as of yet. Which is the best driver to use to get that working, and what extra configuration do I need to look at doing to get it working? Thanks for any advice you can give!

Pretty sure I've answered my own questions here... I plugged in an external monitor and it looked great, and gave me the option to muck around with color profiles. When I allowed all color profiles to show up, selecting one of the less dramatic ones made the laptop screen look fine. Doesn't look as good as the external monitor but hey, it's a laptop display so I wouldn't expect it to. Discovered that if I want the CPU to look after itself and run at full speed all the time I can just re-run EDP to remove that component. Nearly too easy!

Hey guys, I've managed to get OSX 10.6.8 up and running on my D830 w/ NVidia graphics, working a dream. I only have one gripe, and honestly it's quite a small one. The graphics don't appear to be running at the level that they are capable of, and this might just be a slight incompatibility but would love it if there was a way to fix it. It's very easy to see with the default OSX wallpaper, the whites are sort of 'outlined', and it looks as if it's using 16bit or 24bit color instead of 32bit color. Anything I can do to sort this out? Also, I've noticed the CPU is set to "on-demand" performance, which is good in theory but I find that navigating around OSX it can be a bit clunky at times, whereas if I manually set it to the highest value then it runs perfectly. Upon restarting, this gets reset. Am I able to set this to always use the highest speed, even after a reboot? Sorry if these are noobish questions, first time I've dabbled in this stuff!
