I've tried troubleshooting it, but no joy. Like I mentioned, even reformatting and using multiple versions of drivers from both ASUS and AMD's websites failed to fix things. I've been doing tech for 30+ years and usually am the one people call when everyone else says something can't be done. Lots of freezes and reboots with this system too. I don't have any other AMD systems to compare notes with, as I've always ponied up the extra $ for Intel from the early days when AMD was truly inferior. Google Earth errors out with a message relating to the graphics drivers. I've tried the drivers from Asus' website, as well as from AMD's site.. doesn't improve anything. Even out-of-the-box, factory fresh, it didn't work. I'm also not terribly impressed with the AMD CPU's performance, especially single-thread.

On Lenovo, the FN key can be swapped in the BIOS to give you a normal keyboard, btw.
