    i just got 8510p this week, and im trying to play crysis. when it first loads it takes a long time in the "black screen" then when it loads i get about 1fps for the menus, its really laggy.
    i updated my HD2600 driver (from HP, the onces from ATI doesnt update for me)
    so now my driver is 24/09/2007 version 8.391.2.1110

    still lags

    i have no idea whats going on, someone help please?

    also where can i go to adjust system performance settings? such as "max performance on AC"

    im using Windows XP

    well, the catalyst 7.12 should do just fine.

    to use it you will have to patch the driver with dh modtool from driverheaven.
