    I'm doing okay, but I can't play movies so far with the interactual player, it says I have to lower the settings because there's a problem with "Video Subsystem" -- tried lowering them, didn't work. It uses the Radeon x1400 video card so I'm not sure what drivers to use. Windows media Player says there's no compatible DVD decoder. It's my drivers for the Radeon? Anyone know the link?

    The other problem is no wifi, is there a driver for that? Link please? name?
