If anyone has a compatible notebook, have they tried these, and do they make any difference?

Does it make any difference to gaming? E.g. Increased title support?

I was wondering if this update now enabled hardware T&L support, but the release notes say nothing at all other than it being an initial reference driver release.

I don't think those are new drivers for the GMA X3100. They look like the only drivers available for the GMA X3100. Probably exactly the same as the standard 14.29 driver just that it installs on the GM965 now.

those drivers are actually old, their the same ones as the X3000 drivers released back on April 18, 2007.

You can find newer drivers for Vista here (15.4.1.64.1268):
