i think im going to give up overclocking the GPU as being a bad job. thanks for all the help - you have inadvertantly solved several other of my problems, but i think its probably going to be too much hassle for very little gain. Thanks anyway :)

OK, ive tried ATITool, and it wont run: windows wont install the drivers, they are unsigned apparently, and accordingly, when ATITool runs, the kernel mode driver doesnt work. Ive found one person who says that running "bcdedit -set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS" in command prompt should...

Ok, thanks for the help :) Ill have a look at ATITool, and get back to you. and what would you reccomend doing about the drivers- would there be a specific GS driver that i could download and use somewhere?

Im 75% confident that its a GS, because firstly the sticker on the front (from NVidia) says it is, as well as after running a full-screen 3D app CPU-Z tells me that the current GPU clocks are at (core) 530 (shaders) 1325 and (memory) 799. (Despite the fact that the "name" feild clearly says...

high performance mode only changes the limeters on performance, not the actual current values. However, with a fullscreen game running (forcing the video card to go to full clocks) , and then doing the scan in the background, it still tells me i have a 9800M GT. NVidia then tells me to...

hrm, upon loading the "automatic driver finder" thing, on the nvidia site, it prompts me to run the system requirements lab software from www.srtest.com, which i already know thinks i have the GT. Upon finishing the scan, nvidia also determines that i have the GT version. I am at a loss as to...

I have an Asus G50VT-X1, which has a rather interesting problem (as far as i can tell, all X1's have this). Windows sincerely believes that it contains an NVidia 9800M GT, when it actually has a 9800M GS (CPU-Z can confirm this with clock speeds, referenced to www.notebookcheck.com, as well as...
