S96J questions / ATI

Hi, just getting the system loaded all up with a little toying around. This is the closest ive been to late breaking technoligy . It plays NASCAR Racing season 2003 by papyrus the best ive ever seen it!!!

I thought something was wrong with the dvd drive because it kept ejecting on me. I figured out that if i push the tray in while my finger was on the eject button (unknowingly ) it would refuse to stay in.....duh

Anyways, here comes the questions.

My ATI drivers are listing the x1600 with 512mb of hypermemory. Everest is reporting it with 256mb. My system properties are listing a gig of ram.

Why is this conflicting?

Power4 gear is a nice little utility, but its a little lacking compared to notebook hardware control. I find NHC is a little difficult to understand the power saving options. Are there any more options out there?

I know im fogetting something.....

 

Your S96J has a X1600 with dedicated 256mb, and it can hypermemory up to 512mb.

Everest only looks at dedicated vram. It is not conflicting. Nothing to worry about it is just doing its job.

P4G is very nice, NHC is also nice - has a clean GUI and for the most part easy to use.

You may want to use RMclock.
