ATI sucks for drivers...at least for the Mobility Radeon chips. You're best to try a third party alternative, like Omega (for 32 bit Windows) or TechConnect (for 64 bit Windows). The link is listed on one of these forum threads.
The only problems I can think of for this type of recurring error would be bad RAM or (basically) a bad motherboard. Chances are, if it is the RAM, the one replaceable stick is fine. If you can, download the ISO for Memtest86, burn a...
I don't know if anyone else has had this problem or not, but it's happened twice to me so far, so I thought I would mention it. When on battery power (without any CPU drivers installed for Windows XP 64) and the optimized ATI driver...
Ahh, nevermind: ATI M22(P) is the Mobility Radeon X300 ATI M24(P) is the Mobility Radeon X600 ATI M26(P) is the Mobility Radeon X800
ATI may be making a new low cost mobile GPU, and labeling it the 9550. The desktop 9550s were just rebranded 9600s which ran at lower clock speeds (maybe a few subtle differences too). I did notice there's no mention of how much video...
That's really odd. I play Need For Speed Underground 2 at 450/225 for hours and it never heats up at all. Even the exhaust gas is never hot...only mildly warm from time to time. I only have a 3200 chip (and it's not overclocked), but...
Stickers mean nothing. I can slap an NOS sticker on my laptop, but that doesn't mean it has a nitrous kit hooked up. Those stickers just tell the user what they're buying, and as a showing off point. "Hey, look! I've got...
I would say closer to a Celeron D. In fact, here's a fairly good comparision of a Socket A Sempron and a Celeron D: http://www.pcper.com/article.php?aid=61&type=expert. The two are just about equal in power.
I can't comment about the M5410, but I can answer the Sempron question. The short answer is the Sempron is an upgraded Duron processor: AMD's Celeron. The long answer is the Sempron comes in two basic flavors: Socket A and Socket...
Officially, ATI does not support mobile graphics cards. Period. They don't sell them directly to individuals, and so they (like most other companies) feel they have no requirement to support them. Sort of like Broadcom, only a little...
