A couple things come to mind: Power management & GenMAC Which Win32 driver is in your wrapper directory? I updated some a while back, but I'd have to look to see if the few I submitted cover the T60 (I believe they do/did). Try turning off all power mgmt on the system. Check the BIOS & embedded controller firmware versions against the latest available from Lenovo. If you do swap video drivers, remember that the SDD helper driver improves Panorama performance by several orders of magnitude, & appears to be safe (by all accounts thusfar, AFAIK). If a brainstorm hits, I'll follow up ASAP. G'day! ___ Lewis G Rosenthal Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC Sent with SnapperMail
