• if you open and close see details, slide show of feature size messed up, scrollbar shows up
• use GMA if BIOS set to switchable/enable OS detect.

• change BIOS to discreet/disable OS detect, install ATI post, failed, install regular ATI needs reboot, shouldn't it just give you a button? restart, font all messed up.
