HP GFX card

[Gsentinel]

I have a friend that has a HP ZD8000 notebook. Ive been all over ATi's site for the latest drivers but it says that hp isnt supported. (mobo?) Anyways, I went to hp's site and couldnt find anything there. Maybe I missed something? The card is a Ati mobility X600. 2gigs of ram, 3.0ghz p4 .

Also, the computer wont charge. He doesnt think its the battery, anyone else have this problem? If so, how have you overcome that problem?

Assuming it's XP these should work.

Yea I checked there but it doesnt support the HP chipset.

Have you tried 'em anyway? It shouldn't matter who made the laptop, just what video chip it is.

Though I like the Omega drivers better... they work on anything and they're less of a bloated download.

But it's a x600 regardless, correct?

What else would it possibly use other than that.

Did you try it?

I tried the one off the ATi site and it said that "unfortunately the software update could not be installed on your system. Please contact your notebook manufacturer for driver updates"

Did you uninstall the old drivers first?
