HI brink
Yes I should, but original drivers from ATI-AMD website haven't notebook support
I had issues with the ATI mobility driver on my notebook after upgrading from XPProSP3 to Vista Ultimate. Could find help nowhere. Here's what I did to solve th issue as apparently the upgrade left renmants behind and both were loading causing me shutdown error messages, no hibernation support, etc.

1. Run msconfig as administrator
2. Click on the Startup tab
3. Click on the Manufacturer column
4. Look for your ATi products (mine were under Unknown)
5. If ATICCC is checked, uncheck it
6. If StartCCC is not checked, check it
7. Press apply
8. Exit without restarting
9. Check to see if you have a "hibernate option on the start menu control
If you do not have a hibernate option, do the following:
1. Click Start, click All Programs, and then click Accessories.
2. Right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.

3. Type powercfg -h on, and then press ENTER.
Restart your computer.
