Calm down.
Target 1: ATI. ATI didn't make a graphic card that is in your notebook. It made a chipset that Compaq built into their product and programmed there own modifications into. Therefore it is Compaq who has sole responsibility for creating the drivers its product will need.
Target 2: Compaq. Yuck. I need say nothing else.
Target 3: Microsoft. If you had have done some basic research FIRST before installing XP you wouldn't have anything to be angry about because you would have discovered the lack of driver support....
Now for the 'cross-your-fingers-and-hope-it-works' possible solution. Click <a href="http://support.ap.dell.com/ap/EN/filelib/download/download.asp?fileid=R34413&format=38101&sid=INS_PN T_CEL_4000&lang=EN&lib=0&os=WW1&searchtype=filter" target="_blank">here</a> and see if this Mobility 128 driver from Dell works for you (backup anything important first).
Oh, and don't post the same topic in multiple forums. It gets the other members upset (especially the moderators).

And do us all another favor. Please don't post in all bold to show your anger. We all get frustrated at times, look at me, I'm dealing with an IBM Aptiva with a Pent 90 in it and trying to get the Maxtor utility to stop locking up, so I can configure the computer to see the full 20 gigs of the harddrive. And I'm doing all this for free. The point is, we all have problems, and we're all willing to help you, but there is no need to take your anger out here. I look at a computer screen too many hours of the day, to read a post in all that bold, killing my eyes.

I'm not in the best of moods either, my new Mobo doesn't POST and it seems to be a common thing with this board, "but once you get a good one, you'll love it!" is what I keep finding on their boards......(I wish the dog hadn't have eaten the receipt....)

You didn't specify which model laptop you have but you can give this a try. This is the driver we use internally at Compaq (yes, shameful, I work there) on the Armada machines. <a href="http://www.compaq.com/support/files/armada/us/download/11021.html" target="_blank">http://www.compaq.com/support/files/armada/us/download/11021.html</a>
My brain went into standby mode and I can't get it to wake up, is there a BIOS patch for this?
