    Hello everyone,

    I have received my DV6T Quad Edition Laptop today, and I want to overclock my gpu (ATI Radeon 6770). However, the Sapphire Trixx website is down, and when I try to install ATI Tray Tools, I get an error message saying- Can not find ATI video board or no Catalyst drivers installed! Can anyone give me an answer as in why the sapphire trixx website is down or why I am getting this error message from ATI Tray Tools?

    BTW I have the 6100 model.

    Any response would be appreciated! :D

    Try MSI Afterburner

    MSI AfterBurner Overclock Application Discussion forum - Guru3D.com Forums

    The third sticky down tells you how to modify the .ini file so as to run it on a mobility chip. This utility works on AMD / Nvidia alike and is constantly updated. I turned a lot of people on the Envy board onto this. Works well

    Actually, everytime I set my clocks and click apply, the clocks go back to 0.
    Is this a common problem, or is there a fix?

    ....yup when I messed with it one night...never got it to work. Unchecked Power Play, etc but the sliders always went to 0 when I hit Apply. Probably something simply I missed but wasn't a big deal to me..just wanted to see what kind of numbers I could pull with 3D mark.

    That brings me to another point. When you ran 3D Mark, did you get your dedicated graphics to kick in? I ran it the other day, and I got a score (can't remember it right now) that was amazingly low, compared to other computers of the same specs that I have. I noticed that my Intel igp was running, so is there a way for it to use the ATI graphics?
