I upgraded to the current stable version from soundforge . Look on Dave Hind s site for info on this. All in all excellent choice for a laptop. All internal hardware works by default. Didn t have to run sndconfig or any other util s to get the system operational.
System is fast, video performs well.
But to XiG s defense, I was also two versions older than their current release when I attempted to install it. I ended up uninstalling it and running Xconfigurator again. The 15.0 XGA LCD panel on this laptop supports very high refresh rates as opposed to most other laptop screens. I rebooted to Winblows and tried the same thing and was able to set the refresh as high as 95mhz and it looked better than when set at 1024x768 LCD Panel with an optimal refresh rate. Be careful in doing this, though, as it can burn out your LCD panel quickly.
