QUOTE(ttzew @ Apr 21 2007, 03:14 PM) yeh.... receive my notebook today...... one problem is why my ATI X1400 only have 128MB. (I refer to dedicated video memory in display setting) isit everyone here with ATI X1400 also like this ? Please do not get confuse. The reason they put 256MB? Because they can cheat more customer to buy it.  On board graphic card memory contain 128MB only, the rest is shared memory using your RAM. Here a description which make you see it clearly. Look at the footnote 3.

For bluetooth, just try to install a few times till it pop up menu like it's searching for something. Then just restart ur pc and resintall back again. it should work i try that 2 times already. first time was then i first open my pc and second time was when i restore back the to factory setting.
