    Oki i was just wondering if anyone else has been getting the same problems as me. i cant play more then 10 mins, it crashes and computer restarts. A couple times when it crashed it showed a blue screen, other times just closed and went to windows (XP) SP2. :confused: any suggestions?

    Did you try running memtest? Sounds like a memory dump if you are getting a blue screen.

    You can also check your temps but the laptop would probably reboot and not go to a bluescreen if that were the case.

    that is because you have to go to uninstall your current drivers (in safe mode if needed), then re-install... either with stock drivers

    - or laptopvideo2go drivers (which will require a bit of INF editing, so that it will work)

    Oki i finnaly had time to make the memtest on my computer and of cource it showed that the memory was damaged. talked to the support guy at Cizmo and he told me he would replace the ram free of charge. he told me he would be sending me the 800MHz instead of the 667MHz. I read somewhere that the 800MHz are not compadible with M570RU??
