If I buy CQ40-126AX (which has licensed Windows Vista Premium), will all drivers be installed before i purchased it? Will the drivers and Windows Vista Premium installations DVD be given in package?
I see all users here bought CQ40-125AX...LOL

Can anyone check what type of ram that this graphic card is using?

"ATI Radeon HD 3450 Graphics with 256MB dedicated memory"

DDR2 or DDR3?

Nope. The RAM compartment is easily accesible. Just make sure u keep the original RAM stick for warranty purpose.
GDDR2 running at 500mhz = DDR2 1000.

If DDR2. there is limitation in overclocking laugh.gif

Anyone please share vista rating here. I will get this laptop as soon as possible.
Now nVidia facing big trouble because of its GPU solder joints. whistling.gif

If u have money add few more hundred and get CQ45 with Core 2 and 9200M GS. This notebook is good but battery life is terrible.
