I actually wasnt even suppose to have support for that. Luckily a few of the guys at Laptop2Go.com made a custom nv4 inf file to support the 6800 past 78.34 or w/e it's original release was. In anycase, i just dont think it's compatible with it 

On a positive note however, it does appear to be more stable in frame rates in CoD4 with the new update. I was chopping a good bit unfortunately in heavy gunfights. I was running around in the server and it seemed to be more stable. 

congrats dave u got this one right. now my game works...ty

Your most welcome.  Now you have to come to a LAN

Dunno if anyone had this problem:

I couldn't change my GFX settings without CODWAW dropping me to the desktop.  The process was running but it never came back up.  So in order to change my grfx settings I did this:

I have a workaround to change some settings:

The config file is here: C:\Documents and Settings\%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaWbeta\players\profiles\%your profile name%\config_mp.cfg

Open that file with a txt editor (preferrably notepad.exe)

You will have to search around for the settings you want. I found 'seta r_mode "1024x768" '. That allows you to change the resolution.

I have yet to find other settings such as AA (Mine was set to 4x initially which does not work to well with the lesser gt9500). So to change that, after I killed the process, the next time I ran it it wanted to start in safe mode, which I said yes. That reset to all the lowest values and that's how I changed the AA settings.

This could be the AA setting, but at AA being off the setting is confusing to me: seta r_aaSamples "1" . I am guessing that 1 = aa off but I am probably wrong. Hope this helps!

I posted that on the COD beta forum as well.  It seems some others are having that issue.

It installed and played on mine perfectly when I had Xfire turned on and running.

The 6 series was the first series they really decided to come out with powerful GPU chipsets for laptops. I remember the M7700 Alienwares were the first ones to really implement it with the 6800 Go. They later released a cheaper laptop with 6600 go's and eventually 6800 Ultra's and so on up to 7800 Go cards (and beyond now I guess). But I guess because it was first real series it hasn't been supported well at all

Also CoD5 beta is still not working for me. I've done everything everyone has posted to a t. Again I just dont think it's really supported at this time. However one would question even thinking about picking this game up if there's so many problems in the demo. How stable is the main release going to be in a few weeks? I suspect a lot of patches

Well, that was the issue with my setup.  As soon as I quit Xfire, it could change gfx settings with no problems.

Well I shouldn't say that. Back in the days of the original COD. I could never install it because xfire was enabled. It kept giving me an error. I exit out of xfire and it works fine. I believe it still does that every once in awhile.

Even after playing it, I'd still question picking it up.

I am talking about the MP beta.  Isn't the demo just SP?
