I can now play cs 1.6 fullscreen 1280x800. I was totally unable to do that prior to going 7 and installing the vista drivers. with xp i could pull off 640x480 but it was choppy as hell. graphics are clearly better as far as counter-strike 1.6 is concerned.. to be quite honest though, Aero is still incredibly unstable unless you turn off the transparency. all things considered, Tis a step in the right direction for intel.

I used Windows media Player for Windows Movie maker created avis - it crashed.
I used VLC for Windows Movie maker created avis - it didn't crash, but the sound was buggy.

I copied some files - Bluescreen!

The latest driver may means nothing to you. It did solve my Youtube problem. Now Youtube plays smoothly on my Mini 12 even on full screen.

I see. I never had a You Tube problem (Mini 10). Is this a Windows 7 issue?

Maybe it's because Mini10 has a smaller resolution screen when compared to Mini12. I'm using WinXP.
I just played some trailers at HD off Youtube and it seems my Mini12 is still struggling to play it smoothly, even not at full screen. Normal resolution at full screen played smoothly though.

I wouldn't think 32 pixels would make that much of a difference (I have the HD mini 10). I suppose every little bit counts though. Good luck, hopefully they'll release something soon that will fix these problems once and for all.

Can someone confirm which driver is for windows 7, and driver for xp.

I tried to install V6.14.11.1009 at Windows 7, but it wont install it, even in compatible (vista) mode.

Now i have 7.14.10.1005 driver on windows 7, which is 7's default driver.
And 6.14.10.1098 in xp partition. (1010Â´s factory driver)

I'm tried to install it too, wouldn't work... so what is the latest driver?

blade_pan · 07-07-2009, 05:48 AM

I am confused. I have the v7.14.10.1092 and I don't know which is the new one or where can I find the new one?

I am using win 7.

Argh... People created confusion by mixing XP into the Vista/Windows 7 conversation.

7.14.10.1005 is the latest for Vista/Windows 7 (You'll need to install in compatibility mode for Windows7).

6.14.11.1009 is the latest version for Windows XP. Don't try install this on windows7, it doesn't work.
