    is it safe for me to delete some of the lenovo stuff from startup? and what are the consequences if i do? i kind've want to get rid of bluetooth from startup since 95% of the time i dont need bluetooth but am kind've afraid i cant get it it work when i need it.
    for example can i disable some of the lenovo stuff? i dont really know which ones i need
    npdirect\tpfnf7sp.exe
    ezejmnap.exe
    btttray.exe

    If you don't need Bluetooth, then you can disable it. Worse case if you have to reboot to get it back, but generally, re-starting the service works okay.

    I thought the integrated still uses an ATI driver.

    I guess you could try and see what happens....
