I recently bought the lateset macbook pro and i installed XP with bootcamp to play PC games. However, windows cant locate my graphics card so i cant install the suitable drivers etc. As a result i cant play games as the integrated GPU isnt powerful enough. How do i get windows to locate and recognise my discrete GPU. (its the GeForce 330M)
Thanks

Did you install the bootcamp drivers? You just put the Mac disk in and it'll run the install. I believe that has some video drivers on them.

From there you can probably install 3rd party ones if you wish.

Great suggestion. That is the last part of the bootcamp install. I guess it could be overlooked.
