    Im curious, i've noticed a lot of people who have had video problems on their machines 6 series notebooks and have been using the omega drivers. Personally, i overclocked my video card and i think thats what did it in. It wasnt immediate but it happened over time. Now im just wondering if the omega drivers could be the cause for so many emachines 6 series video cards to get fcuked up?
    So if you had your 6 series notebook fixed because of a video problem, please share it with everyone, let us know:

    Series of your notebook:
    Video drivers used:
    overclocked: yes or no
    if yes, how fast?
    How often you play games:

    And any other info you might find useful.
    I have a hunch that it is the omega drivers and when i get back my m6805 notebook from its repairs, im a bit hesisitant in reinstalling the omega drivers.
    Any ideas suggestions?
