Difference in mobile video card

[mokkapoop]

So I purchased a Dell Inspiron 1501 for $450 shipped with the following specs:

AMD Athlon X2 1.8GHZ
2GB DDR2 667MHZ
ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 256MB HyperMemory
8x DVD-RW
15.4 WX LCD

What I got was a laptop with a slight crack/scratch on the screen, blue screen upon startup and a Radeon Xpress 200m (not the ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 256MB HyperMemory).

What do you suggest I do?

Where did you buy this laptop? Ebay? The FS/FT forum?

I'd take it back if you're not satisfied. I'm not sure but I doubt there is a big performance
difference between the two graphics cards.

You can do a quick hardocp.com news search if you want to find out. I'm sure
they have reviewed these two cards together... I'd hope.

What do you suggest I do?

You really should return it.

Done. Called Dell and they should be sending me a replacement.

This one was a no-brainer.
