ATI powerplay on mobility radeon 7500 and windows 7

#1 Post by craigmontHunter » Sun Oct 18, 2009 8:19 pm

I love windows 7, and it works fine with the slower processor speed that I use on battery, but I would really like it if I could get Powerplay working. Other than that it works as well as windows xp, but I need the extra battery life. If anyone has had any success or knows any possible way to make it work, I would really appreciate it.

You can activate power play in Windows 7 using the Notebook Hardware Control program.

Thanks 8)

Running windows 7, and testing to see how long I can last before switching to something else.
