downloaded the Vista Catalyst 9.8 for desktop Radeon HD4000, then ran Mobility Modder so that it can be installed for mobile cards...

works like a charm...

btw the new driver windows 7 windows experience index for gaming graphic increase from 4.5 to 6.0.
well this is correct. because my bro F8Sv has Nvidia 8600M GT 256MB(DDR2) has 5.9 score.

How good/bad is this G102m GPU, and comparing the processor with this AMD 2.1GHZ processor, any comments?

Cause I know the Intel one won't have heat issues. Prefer to get something that won't overheat without any adjustment
*
www.notebookcheck.net
click on compare graphic card.

btw. only old AMD cpu has heat issues la. new one dont hv already...

my Asus F81Se when running Crysis the cpu and gpu temp goes up to 69 and 88 degree celsius max.
Intel P8700 2.53GHz
ATi HD4570 512MB

when idle is 45 and 50.

without aircond. mind comparing wit this model? cuz my friend bought this. but hes not here.

btw we using Windows 7.

hye all
i`m using k40ab
just bought it
to preserve the battery do i need to take out the battery when using adapter?
or just leave it there
tq

thats for old laptop....new one doesnt need to remove to preserve the battery. because after the battery fully charged while u using it then it will go direct to ur pc instead of through the battery then to pc....u can check the battery light.

plus use it for some time. do not never use ur battery. because if u never use ur battery for quite long time also will damage the battery....

yeah...just slightly better. because of the ram clock...while ours is 500MHz dells running on 800Mhz..not much different u can see from ur eyes actually. but then still u cant run crysis wit maximum setting...i mean u can run...but not for playing...it will be lagging..

but dun forget for Core 2, the bottleneck is the FSB...

for AMD even running at 667MHz only, it's still better than Core 2 with 800MHz...
*
actually ha.. theres no such thing as bottleneck on fsb...itu old rumor...the 1:1 ratio fsb:dram... tu semua tipu one because everything goes into the chipset not through the cpu...btw amd fsb is lower than core 2. core 2 duo is at 266mhz. while amd is 200 somting only.
