Post by: Mr Skrunts on 27 March 2009, 11:22:43

Picked up a cheap laptop during the week, nothing spectacular.

Cheersm have used that site for years but recently I just havent got to grips with it.

Seems the laptop has ATI graphics so will try these ATI CATALYST Drivers v5.1

Thats the only driver not currently setup, so will try that first and then format it, hoppfully all the other drivers are PnP and hopefully the LAN is as well.

Before you format make a note of the models for sound, lan and graphix so you can look for the correct ones after the format :y
