So now that my machine is %99 percent there I have made a page that represents my work so that others might get some help without asking all the questions I did:
http://www.aproximation.org/application/AMD64laptop.html
Its filled with misspellings and is not really complete. Only use will determine what actually works and what doesnt, but its a beginning at any rate.
Im going to post this on a few other lists as well, so I appologize if you get this message more than once.
Thanks for all your help! -thewade
