:S On the afternoon, the battery wear was 6,9% (went down from 7%) but now it's 7,6 :S It was on charge for some hours and after i was on battery(to 55%). ............ I don't want to watch this battery wear anymore xD

By the way, has someone noticed that sometimes, the notebook doesn't get back from sleep for the first try(but always for the second)? The screen don't came back but everything else do.

I reinstalled becouse there was too much useless app on the OEM win7.

Would it boost preformance by any chance ?

This is just a heads-up for any ATI folks out there looking to add a little anti-aliasing to your StarCraft II-ing. ATI has released an updated driver, version 10.7a, that includes a hotfix that enables forced AA for the game. You have to activate AA inside the Catalyst Control Thingamajig outside of the game.

End transmission.

Is your BIOS and video card drivers updated?

ATI Releases StarCraft II Anti-Aliasing Hotfix

Interesting. Anyone who's upgraded/updated experience anything different? E14 users still reporting problems using Medium-settings or higher in bigger battles. Also, what's the max clock achieved in 3820TG's 5650 card? E14 users can't get to the 550. Some can't even get past 490.

I run 690 /1070 all the time without any lock ups 100% stable. I can run 740 / 1100 but in gaming it will cause a lock up after 30 minutes or so.

Its strange then that Envy 14 users can't get past 550? Why would that be, less voltage?
