ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470

Hey there,


I need some help or information.

I bought a new laptop this week, but its gaming performance is lower than I expected.

Asus X56TR
Turion RM70 (2 Ghz, Dual Core)
Memory 4 GB
HDD 320 GB
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470

I tried to run COD4 on it, but it cant run it properly. (Which it does on my desktop with slower specs: a single core 2,86 Ghz, ATI X1650 and 2gb)

I thought there was something wrong with my drivers. After installing latest Catalyst 8.10 with drivers using mobility modder. I ran Systemrequirementslab on COD4 to investigate.

Every component was a pass except for my gfx card:

Video Card
Minimum: 128MB 3d Hardware Accelerated card required-100% DirectX 9.0c compatible and latest drivers (NVIDIA GeForce 6600+ / ATI Radeon 9800 Pro+)
You Have: ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics (ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics (0x9612)) FAIL: Sorry, your video card does not meet this minimum requirement.
Video Card Features - Minimum attributes of your Video Card Video RAM: Required - 128 MB , You have - 256 MB
Video Card 3D Acceleration: Required - Yes , You have - No
Video HW Transform & Lighting: Required - Yes , You have - No
Vertex Shader Ver.: Required - 2.0 , You have - 0.0
Pixel Shader Ver.: Required - 2.0 , You have - 0.0

Someone else on the forums with the same gfx-card got these results: http://www.hardwareheaven.com/laptop-n...phic-card.html

So is there a software problem here? How can i fix it?

Thx in advance
