Tried installing the GPU client, kept getting a "EARLY_UNIT_END" Error. Anyway around this?

GPU: Mobility Radeon X1600 256MB

Are you using a driver that isn't supported by F@H?

The following versions of Catalyst are known to work with the GPU client:
6.5
6.10 - 6.11
7.2 - 7.10
The GPU client will work with these drivers with a significant performance hit:
6.6
6.7
The following drivers do not work at all with the GPU client:
6.8
6.9
6.12
7.1

According to CCC, I'm using 6.14.10.xxxx

Not even on the list :(

try installing a catalyst version from 7.2 to 7.10, a more recent driver is usually better (not only for F@H)

yeah, unfortunately Acer controls the upgrades, and they haven't upgraded anything in a while :(

are you sure, I have an acer notebook too.

They have a special FTP for drivers and firmware, you can install the regular AMD/ATI drivers in most cases anyway.

Tried the ATI "Mobile Catalyst Update" and it said to contact my "notebook manufacturer" for driver updates.

Went to Acer, and the only thing related to ATI on the driver list is "ATI VGA Driver 8.231." I upgraded to that awhile ago via this system. I'll try it again, but I doubt it'l work.

My notebook is a TM8200
