Pre-setup help
So recently as I posted, I just bought an Alienware computer. Now all I can to do is install the drivers and boot install Windows 7 right? Then I could put in a disk and play? Second thing, I'm having trouble understanding what a "Benchmark" is. I am willingly excited to do voice tutorials for gaming and do I need to do one for gaming to work? Thanks.

Re: Pre-setup help
Most drivers are automatically installed on Win 7 so there isn't much to worry there. Also a benchmark is a test to measure the processing power of your machine

Is that factory installed or do I have to download it? Originally Posted by Sauron

The benchmark ? You have to get a app for that, like PCmark or 3Dmark Originally Posted by Bear Grylls

Re: Pre-setup help
Sorry, I'm not understanding this, but you download the app right? Could you perhaps provide me a link for so? Thanks! Originally Posted by Sauron

Re: Pre-setup help
Shouldn't the Alienware come with Windows 7? If it did then I'm pretty sure they would have installed all the drivers required at the factory.

Re: Pre-setup help
Okay, now I need to know why I'd need to install this when I just can configure it on the menu options?
