    Anyone have a guide or some sites I should visit to upgrade the drivers for this system?

    I have already got everything off windows update and the newest VIA 4in1 drivers, What's the deal with the graphics card drivers?! ATI.com says I need to check the manufacturers website, but gateway has no support for this system.

    Anything else I can upgrade, or will be upgraded in the future?

    How did the VIA drivers work out for you ... any improvements or problems?

    There's a new athlon mobile driver out:

    Have a try and let us know how it works.

    Download the Omega Drivers from here:

    They are optimized versions of the Catalysts, and they work with Mobility Radeons as well as desktop versions.
