    As you can see here

    There is the M76M drivers, and the M76 is the Radeon HD 2600.

    Just hope with me it's the 2600XT 256MB GDDR3

    I really hope so, a search of "M76-M" on google linked me to unreleased laptops having an HD 2600 non-XT though

    But it's the same chip so we can still hope

    But I didn't find it, someone said "hey, they are stupid putting ATI drivers for an nvidia card" in another topic :)

    The codename for the entire mobility 2600 series is m76.

    It's only the chip, you have the rest of the card too

    And the NB8E-GS (8800M GS) is the 8700M GT wich consumes 35W. You can see it in the .inf file of nvidia's drivers

    NB8E-GS G84 rev 409.xx
