The only problem I've had with i9kfangui on our i6000 is that it gives me an error on startup that it can't control the GPU fan. These options are ghosted out. Is that normal?

Would I be able to overclock my ATI Mobility Radeon 7000 IGP?

The I6000 only has 1 fan according to what I've read.

Then I guess that will increase the difficulty in adjusting the speed of the second one with software.

Thanks for the heads up. Guess I need to go scan a few of the pics of the internals to better familiarize myself with the guts of the i6000.

I don't see why not. Just do everything I said, except skip anything you don't have access too (such as PowerPlay, ect.)

Usually a system freeze will happen with an 0ver-overclock. As for what to use, maybe ATI tool (linked on the first page).

Have you read the first page at all? Not trying to be mean, but it is a thread on How To OC.

Ok, so I'm gonna do some more revising. Just as an extra little thing, I've decided ATI Tools is superior to ATI Tray Tools (it seems to stress out the card more and finds artifacts sooner, not to mention I like how it checks for the maxes mucho better.) Will be updating with some more programs soon. Promise.
