    I've done a hell of a lot of reading and a hell of a lot of testing.

    My current setup is -

    Windows 7 x64
    8.641 driver from ATI
    Switchable graphics working in Windows
    Nice and stable
    No capability to overclock

    Does anyone have this working?

    Thanks

    I have everything working great as well, but I do not plan to OC. I havent used rivatuner on anything but an nvidia card, but I hear it works on ATI minus a feature or two. As for working on windows 7, Im not 100% sure its stable but you could try it out.

    What are you trying to overclock, the CPU or the GPU?

    I could probably help with the CPU.

    GPU.

    I didn't know this CPU was overclockable, I was accustomed to the un-overclockable T61. Thanks for the info, I'll research it and open another thread if needed :)

    I have tried a lot of things including RivaTuner and it doesn't work.

    You could probably overclock both notebooks with a PLL pin mod.
    Similar to this:

    Or you never know, you could get lucky and have setfsb just work.

    Anyway, good luck with the GPU :)
