    I have having some problems with ATITool on my Vsotro 1500 with Vista business (does it even work in vista?) I have the 158.36 drivers installed and encounter 1 of 2 errors when i run the tool. If I don't run as admin, it says i don't have access to the kernal and won't let me OC but I can see the artifacts preview. but If i run as admin i get this error

    "The Video card you selected fro OC in ATITool does not seem to be used by windows.... visual testing as been disabled.... to fix this go to display properties, settings, and enable the monitor output for the card"

    I cant get what its saying tho, I have hooked up a external monitor, tried to run with the laptop only, the monitor only, and with both on. and i always get the same error.

    Is there something I'm doing wrong?
