Hello All, I need a little help..

Dell Computer XPS M1710
Once I installed Windows 8 ran to rate my Experience Index and it came up to 2.0, it was near 5.0 before installing W8. And the lowest number was my graphics card. I go to device manager and it’s recognized as a generic graphic card. I try updating the driver but it tells me that it’s up to date.
Any clue as to what I’m doing wrong or what I should do?

Thanks

So do you think that I'm getting the most out of my graphics card if W8 recognizes it as a generic card? I've always seen the OS recognizing the hardware for what it is. I'm just making sure.. Thanks
