Hello guys,
4820TG owner here as well, jumped the gun and bought the one with the radeon 5470 (when the one 5650 haven't arrived)  Anyway, upgraded it to 4GB RAM, and now dual-booting Ubuntu 10.10 and Win 7 Pro (TQ MSDNAA) on it. Gaming on it acceptable la, BF:BC2 can run @ ~ 27-30 fps on low.. |

Anybody tried updating the graphics drivers to beyond Catalyst 10.7?
I did to 10.11, have display, but can't manage res & no switchable graphics. |

QUOTE(cowithgun @ Dec 15 2010, 01:19 PM) Added on December 15, 2010, 1:35 pm That's terrible! Did you follow the recommended procedure to update driver? - Update to latest Acer Driver or find it in www.acer.com.my for your OS, latest should be 8.741.1.6 - Go to BIOS, switch to Discreet graphic - Install modded Catalyst 10.10e from guru3d (10.10e is actually newer than 10.11) - Go back to BIOS, switch back to Switchable I heard that 10.12 for mobile is released, no time to test yet... I am still using the Acer driver. Seem very OK to me. Added on December 15, 2010, 2:58 pm They announced it last April 2010 in the paper saying that they will bring the 13" model to Malaysia in a month. I waited till September, finally only the 4820TG with 5650 reached Malaysia. I am totally upset. Don't ever wait for Acer Malaysia anymore... Same thing happened to me, waited for the 4820TG with the 5650 since July, and after a month of waiting, ended up getting the one with the 5470 (really need a laptop at that time) E-mailed them before about when will it be available, never got a proper response from them  EDIT: Done it, but can't open CCC and can't switch graphics.
