I'm assuming it will. I beleive the 30W and the N30W are the same model. Maybe someone else here can confirm this???? ~Rich
well......... I have tried the drivers and everything works, but the video card doesn't work and thats the one I really need its ATI RAGE MOBILITY 8mb dedicated. I have try everything at ati.com all those driver don't work on this laptop. well thanks for replying
After about an hour of searching, I found this. http://www.geocities.com/ziyadhosein/rprow98.htm Scroll down a bit and you will see a link to download M6.12.12. That should be the driver you need. Make sure to have DirectX8 or higher installed first though. (get it from Microsoft.com) Hope this helps. ~Rich
DoubleDwn thanks you for spending you time for me sorry for wasting you time...... but sadly to say the driver didn't work but here is my full specs compal n30w intel p3 700mhz 256mb ram running at pc100 (128x2) 40gb 5,400 8mb buffer ata 6 running windows xp professional sp2 ATI RAGE Mobility (compal) from reformatting chip type : ATI RAGE mobility P/M AGP 2x (a21/2) DAC TYPE : ATI INTERNAL DAC MEMORY SIZE : 8mb ADAPTER STRING : 1002-4c4d-64-14c0-0007 bios information : SGRAM BIOS 4.225t (blanco) p.s thanks you
OK, try this. http://support.packardbell.com/uk/item/index.php?i=NECFIUP04120600&pi=platform_M3 Download the driver from here. Once you download them, go to My Computer->Control Panel->System->Hardware->Device Manager-> double click on display drivers -> right click the driver that comes up and click on properties. In the driver properties, click on the driver tab. click on rollback driver. Once thats done, restart the notebook. Go back to the device manager and this time install the driver you downloaded. Do a manual installation. "Install from a list or specified location(Advanced)". Next window "Don't search, I will choose the driver to install". Next window- click on "have disk". the driver is most probably located on c:/pnp/atdriver/ ... Once you choose that dir, you will get 4-5 inf files to choose from. Choose "atiixpab.inf ". Install the drivers and reboot the comp. Let me know. ~Rich
thanks it works but there is different driver of the video card which one do i choose the first one??
???????? Dont know. Just take your best guess. Which ever one matches your card better. Glad you got it to work. ~Rich
man my laptop just crashed and it turn blue screen with ati something then i turn it off because it makes a loud sound
Can you boot to safe mode? If so, make sure you remove the ATI catalyst software. Also, check device manager and make sure that the ATI card is no longer there.
