So i think it might be overheating maybe? I noticed something this morning, i was playing with battery and it wasn't frizzing.weird right? ( CPU was quiet, so was the cooling fan, and the laptop was not hot). One little problem that i noticed is that the laptop is still freezing when i play even in my XP partition (that partition has no problem with the video card since its the original OS).

anyways, i am downloading the catalyst drivers in this very moment, i will post you the results as soon as i finish installing them! Thank you!!!!!!!!!Įdit: i really appreciate your help since its been a little while since i tried the forum to get help =) finally someone gave me a reasonable answer. i heard about the catalyst drivers, but never understood it and i wasn't sure which version i was supposed to use! now this link you gave me shows my graphic card there, remember that the card works with 7, the problem is that it shows half the amount of memory it actually have.

every single driver in my pc is updated, the bios too. Too much dust inside and it was overheating the video card. I will disarm it and try to clean it up because the last time i did it was 2.5 years ago and it was nasty. But anyways, i think that this laptops starts to overheat and it messes with the video card.

Then you can try low graphic settings in the game you are playing, and changing the windows aero theme to basic, at least while you play, if windows its not doing it by itself. try to use the high performance plan and check the advanced settings and look for the video card settings and set it to work 100% when plugged in. Then check the energy plan that you are using, since playing with economic battery reduce the power for the video card.

Try to never play unplugged from the AC Power. Games frizzes every 15 seconds and it makes it too hard and annoying to play. Mine says its a 32mb card and it is a 64 one. Your problem could be: there are definitely NO updated drivers for windows 7 for the X300, but yours seems to be a little newer than mine since windows recognized your 128mb version. So i used XP ( without any service pack or program or updates) for playing my old games that the pc seems to run, and then i use 7 for work, school and everything. The rest of unused spaced, i created a new primary partition, and installed Windows 7 there. So i uninstalled Windows 7, installed the Xp that came with the laptop in first place, then i reduced the space in the windows XP partition and gave it 15 GB. Then i tried Windows 7, everything works great, but the video card doesnt work too well when it comes to games. Since i upgraded to Vista, my cpu was 100% all the time, even when i wasnt using the laptop. I used to be able to play old games with the lowest resolution back in Windows XP.

First of all, what i think is that our already old Inspiron 6000 is not a gaming laptop. There are so many things that could be causing this. I would appreciate any help since nobody has been able to help me, not even " IT's friends " :=( everything works perfect but id love to play my games since i cant afford buying a new laptop with a better videocard and i wont go back to XP! Or is this the only way this card will work with W7? with half the memory? No W7 drivers available for this card on ATI's website either. I searched the internet for months and i couldnt find someone with the same issue, W7 recognizing the video card with half the memory it has.

I installed the drivers from Dell's website for the video card, and tried the driver offered in Windows Update too. The problem is that when i play, the old games i used to play like MVP Baseball 2005, Halo Ce, Age of Empires III, stuff like that, the games frizzes too much it is imposible to play. It worked just fine with Windows XP, and even when i tried Windows Vista for a month. I dont know if it is a driver's issue, or what. The problem is, that Windows 7 says its only a 32mb card. Its an Ati Mobility Radeon X300 with 64mb.

Everything works perfect, the only thing that is not working properly is my graphics card. I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop, with Windows XP, and i updated it, installing Windows 7 Home Premium.
