I have updated my windows quite a few times today but that is all I get. Any idea why is that?

I think you talking about packaging version. Mine is 8.561 
Catalyst version is 8.12 

uh, shuit .. how did you guys update the bios ?

if it's done by simply double clicking the file, don't laugh, it doesn't work

that's the problem. it refused to run with error msg "This program cannot run under Dos mode."

no, i didn't run it in command prompt or in Dos.

Guys

How about the ATI Hybrid CrossFire.......from past discussion i heard that this lappy can support these features but unfortunately HP disable it......do someone here know how to enable this??

^^ depend. i never reached 100c like one of our friend here. didn't feel the heat but Everest shown 85c while playing SoSE. better be careful tho.

^ i don't think enabling it is possible right now

is it the one next to POWER button? i don't think that LED should be blinking

I wonder that the sales support from hp said this model come with 1 ram slot only.

can anyone ensure its 1 ram slot or 2?

My 125ax run with XP + 2x2G ddr800. It still kick my cousin acer 4530 ass BIG time!!!

Just install red alert 3, just....wooooowww!!!

don't expect to play recent game with AA enable with this baby. even 2X, you'll suffer massive Fps drop.

heheehe....of cause, not on ultra high and no AA! Come on now it just 3450 and 9100M only!

Acer 4530 and 125ax set at 800x600

CNC3 - high setting = 125ax sure look and play smooth. 4530 play smooth, but look kind of boxy.
RA3 - medium setting =  125ax look a little boxy but play smoothly. 4530 look boxy and play with lag.

if I got time and meet with my cousin again. I will get some pictures.
