I have an Acer with that card too. Do you install updated ATI drivers in your acer? At ati.com they were saying my notebook wasn't supported and that I should refer to the manufacturer, but the drivers that Acer provides are 2 or 3 years old!

Anyone here has been having good results ignoring that bullsh*t and installing the updated drivers from ATI?
