I have a Lenovo T60p running XP Pro. The latest update installed the update ok but after the reboot I got BSOD. Had to boot to the "Last known good version". Has anyone had similar experiences with this update?

Try going to Windows Add or Remove Programs and uninstall the ATI software, then reboot. Now try installing the new ATI software/drivers.

I just used Thinkvantage System Update to go to version:

8.383.1.1000

I have rebooted a few times and all appears ok.
