    I am trying to get WiDI working on my daughter's laptop. According to Samsung, it is supported for her notebook. I have the Netgear Push2TV receiver. Here are her specs:
    i5-2450 Processor
    Intel Centrino N 6230 adapter
    AMD Radeon HD6090M graphics

    I downloaded the latest HD and display drivers, and the Intel Wireless Display software. I couldn't get the widi software to load, so I tried an earlier version. It did eventually load, but I got an error message about incompatability of my system. I also tried using switchable graphics for the widi program to set it to power save to use the Intel graphics GPU instead. This didn't work either. Anyone have any ideas?

    Hi. I was looking at this same laptop and was trying to learn all I could about it. I discovered this link on the Netgear site:

    Netgear supported laptops - ptv

    Apparently, this particular laptop is not on the Netgear compatibility list.

    HTH.
