Laptop drivers are frequently troublesome, especially with ATI.  I don't really know what to tell you, sorry.

My Laptop has got a GeForce 6600 GO and it kicks a**.  Never had one problem out of it.

Tell them, the same thing you told me about about my OS.

"It's a piece of crap, use a different one."?

I don't know anything about the IGP 345M, though.  How does it compare to a 9700pro?

My laptop has it, absolutely no linux support or software, and the windows software comes with the neat little AIT manager, other than that it sucks at new games. Runs CS, Q3, and DPball fine, just nothing more intense.

No.
This goes back to the gamma issue or lack of. This was when we were testing COBO's 2nd map (forget name) but the tunnel was 'too dark' I took a ss and said argued that most vid cards have this ability to boost gamma.

And I argued that you shouldn't have to make the whole game washed out and look like crap just so you can see in the tunnel when the mapper can just make it brighter, but what does that have to do with your OS?
