    Windows 7 on Pentium-M


    Does anyone installed Windows 7 beta on a laptop with Pentium-M + 855PM Chipset?

    I installed Windows 7 on such a laptop but there's WEI remarks and the CPU always running at 100% max frequency even I upgrade all the drivers through Windows Update and change the settings in Power Options

    try this one
    http://downloadmirror.intel.com/10884/eng/INF_allOS_9.1.0.1012_PV.exe

    this is the adress of the intel chipset drivers

    next for ibm t40 only:

    and you must install audio card driver,

    then,install the ati 7500 video card driver,The Radeon 9000 driver works for the Radeon 7500 card
    so screen resolution-advanced settings-properties--drivers-update driver-browse my computer.....-list-seek the driver for 9000 series,install it

    now,it works well

    Performance?


    What is the speed/performance like on the T40? Especially in comparison to XP? I'm thinking about trying 7 out on my R40... bit worried about the 16MB graphics though...
