I have the same netbook Nawuza has with the same problems. I bought this computer with Windows 7 on it, but after 3 days it crashed and had to do a restore. After that it started being so slow that i made up my mind and downgraded it to XP SP3 thinking the drivers i found on the net were working, but unfortunately only after installing XP i discovered some of them were not

Pray Dago, solve this problem for us!

The XP driver is finally out...

But...

Installs the video graphics driver version 1.12 for Intel® Desktop Boards with the Intel® Atom™ Processor N2000 and D2000 Series. This driver release has no hardware acceleration for 2D, 3D, or video.

 

/facepalm

Undoubtedly I'd have thought...

Seems like a very rushed release, and I guess it's better to have 'something' rather than nothing. Hopefully a more complete XP driver will appear soon, but don't hold your breath for too long...

You have to be kidding. Actually, Intel has to be kidding. The link https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3382&DwnldID=21551 Download Center takes me to the Embedded Media and Graphics Driver for Windows XP. This is all well and good, except that the software there is something I would use to BUILD or CONFIGURE a GMA 3600 driver and mess with the video BIOS, etc etc. This is a cruel joke. I am not an embedded systems developer. All I really want is a GMA 3600 driver for XP. You know? Click on an EXE to install the driver for a stock off-the-shelf Intel-branded Atom motherboard.

Am I missing something here? If so, please enlighten me... Ben Myers

Microsoft* Windows* XP is not fully validated for these systems, hence the driver is only provided to system manufacturers or Original Equipment Manufacturers to customize a driver according to their needs, so they are to use and compile such driver under their own discretion.

Yes, that is quite obvious from what I have seen elsewhere on the Intel web site. Also, a serious disappointment because it was very poorly publicized.

Hi all,

What happens is that Intel has no plans to develop graphics driver for other operating systems. The operating system that is compatible with Intel GMA 3600 is Windows 7 32-bit. For more information you can check this link http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intelgma3600/sb/CS-033597.htm http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intelgma3600/sb/CS-033597.htm
