    I have recently purchased a MSI 1039..here are the specs:
    100GB 7200RPM HDD
    8x dvd burner
    WXGA
    2GB 400mhz ram
    256MB Radeon x1600
    turion MT 40

    Everything is pretty much working, except the integrated camera. It is a 1.3megapixel integrated camera, problem is i received no drivers for it. Also, I would like to find some third party battery saving program, since I was not provided with one of those either.

    I purchased from xmeld, by the way.

    The camera driver is on the cd, sometimes you cannot see the install link because of the resolution. Browse the cd and you will see the camera driver, also on the cd is the system control manager which has enegry station. This is the battery saving program you are looking for. :D

    Awesome, thank you. I've got the camera and the energy saver working. For some reason, the ATI Catalyst software pops up every time i start my computer and says that I am not able to change the settings of the software and to contact my administrator. The thing is, i log onto the admin account. Any suggestions?
