Uninstall your Catalyst driver..and install again.If the probelm again,try restart your runtime at the program files there,or u can go to ur drive c directory find it.

Dell 6400 does have firewire. There is a 4 pin port on the right side of the laptop. The first port from the right.

What is a notebook firewire?

I am using this mouse from A4tech

It's really comfortable and it's a Laser mouse. Very sensitive. it even has a one click =  double click button.

I think it's only RM50-60

With the same price,im using logitech mini mice..damn comfortable too..rm59 bought from ALLIT.Somemore can put lion,zebra,etc skin. laugh.gif

ASUS don't seem to provide anything above x1700/7700, or for DX10, 8600M or above. So where can you find anything named with an ASUS with 7900GS.

IMHO, the X2300 should be almost the same if not a little better than the x1400. The 512MB hypermemory is just a marketing gimmick. What you should look for is the dedicated memory size
*

Same la..but i think X2300 powerfull than X1400?In terms of techinical spec?And anyone saw X1400 with 512MB hyper memory?

anyone tested the 6400 to play some HD DVD movies? Is it jerky? Coz i downloaded a 1080p Fantastic 4 trailer and it jerks a bit during playback...

for info, the specs for my Dell are

Intel Core 2 duo t5300
2gb ddr2 sdram
120gb hdd

so u think it's enough for true HD playback? wuts the minimum requirement anyway?

coz thinking of collecting HD dvds now...
*

Actually ur lappy HD capability not depends ur hardware.Becuz most of computer can do that,it depends ur physicall spec.JUz like ur display size..speaker..etc.Or maybe only the hardware is graphics card and sound card.But physicall fact is more important.

You are reinstalling what windows? Windows Vista or XP?

For Vista, you don't need to reinstall any drivers. All dell 6400 drivers are available in the Windows Vista installation.

You just need to update the drivers if you want to.

Say like untill X1400 very cheap..actually many of GC also good than GMA950 but sux than x1400.Like X1300,X300,X200,X1350,Go 7400,7300 and more.PLus onboard nv 6150 also better than GMA950 but all poor than X1400.This the only things make me feel better to be a user of x1400. laugh.gif

*

For my recommendation,use 3 partitionm,os,system restore,media direct.But for me,i using vista with 1 partition.Becuz i had formated the media direct and the other 2 default partition alrdy.Becuz i feel that really useless.So i put 1 partiton only.So now dun have media direct,when press the media direct button,it juz same like on/off button,booting to the windows. laugh.gif
