T42 graphics drivers (ATI Radeon 7500 Mobility)
T42 graphics drivers (ATI Radeon 7500 Mobility)
I've installed Vista and all the drivers I could find on the beta page at Lenovo, but I'm stuck at getting the graphics card up and running.
I've seen various "hacks" where you use a windows xp driver and these do work, to some extent.
With the Omega driver I get a bluescreen when shutting down, and if I use the one from Lenovo's site, I get a bluescreen when trying to do anything that involves 3D accelleration.
Does anyone have a link to a driver or knows where I can get one that will work with Vista ?

i have the same problem, the mobility 7500 is not good supported for Vista. I am working with the XP drivers now in Vista and even though they are better than the standard vista drivers i feel a better version of the drivers should do a better work. unfortunately amd has stopped support for our graphics card. this is a shame as the card is not too old.
