Does anyone know how to load the regular Radeon drivers from ATI onto the T60p?

I think people use the Omega drivers to do that.

Would those drivers possibly fix the "flickering" problem that some T60p's have?

probably not, they would be less stable if anything. 
Odd, no flickering here.

I have a T60p and I don't notice any flickering on mine. I've heard the omega drivers won't install, though I haven't tried it myself. I have tried the approach on some rage3d site. That didn't work either. I then forced the drivers to install though the device driver manager by selecting the x1400 driver manually. Interestingly, it gave me a warning that the drivers dont match the hardware. I proceeded anyways with the install and they worked, although the ati control center won't start up anymore. I didn't notice any performance difference when playing CoH, though I didn't compare the actual framerates.
