Vista - ATI Overclocking and Aero Functionality

Has anyone been able to get the ATI overclocking to function in Vista? I
have a mobility radeon x300 with 64 megs of ram.

Oh, and aero works despite what the system requirements say. It is faster
than basic when running two monitors at 1920x1200 and 1600x1200. So much
for system requirements.

Minimum requirements for Aero to work at lower screen resolutions is 64mb of
memory, but 128mb is suggested.

I have the ATI radeon x300 as well.

I have an x1600 and don't have a problem overclocking in vista. I thought the
ccc overclocking tab only worked on x1000 cards and above?

I made it work with ATITool on XP, but hadn't gotten it to work in Vista (at
least not with a WDDM driver). Do you have a mobility radeon?
