Conclusion:
Selling online for around AU$2600, the LifeBook E8410 from Fujitsu is an extremely powerful and well featured notebook that incorporates a very professional appearance and is ideal for people in the business world after a good value, mid/high range notebook.
Although it is not the lightest or smallest notebook on the market, it represents great value for money, and you can’t really expect a notebook with these features to be much smaller. While a reduction in weight would help it along a bit, its weight certainly isn’t over the top and is easy enough to cart around and quite comfortable to work with on your lap. The strange lack of LEDs or any lights whatsoever still bugs me, and I would prefer a few of the more important status indicators to be marked with LEDs, or at least backlight the LCD status panel.
The inclusion of the nVidia GeForce 8400M graphics adapter is a very welcome inclusion as ‘Notebook 3D Performance’ has always been a bit of an oxymoron, and while the E8410 still won’t be able to run the latest 3D games at huge resolutions, it will be able to easily run a lot of your old favourites, and be more than useable for people wanting to do some CAD or 3D animation work.
Overall a very capable notebook that I will happily recommend to customers in the business field looking for something fast and reliable, as well as being good value for money.

To solve the problem, go to the fujitsu website and download the latest video driver (instead of clearly states it as nvdia driver, fujitsu states it as video driver) under download & support.
