strange...
I've got the same configuration and I really have zero problems.
I've got the autorotate option turned off in the software. so just the button.
the display driver options are all set to max performance.

I am not confident enough to hack one myself but would be interested if someone put a hacked one on ebay .. anyone? i am sure others would too.

I purchased the 70012 card from Ebay (AW-VD904) and with the whitelisted BIOS, it is working great. Win7 HP, 2GB ram, broadcom drivers 3.5.

I did run into a slight overheating issue, where the video became corrupted but have not run into it since. The Broadcom Crystal HD card does seem to run warm, but it is totally worth it. Fullscreen Hulu, Youtube up to 720p work great. 1080p Flash still struggles a bit.

Thank you everyone for making the S10-3t my most fun gadget!

Sounds good. I wish it was this easy when I had my S10-3t.

Maybe you can upload the whitelisted BIOS so that other S10-3t owners will have easy access to it. ;)

Gendo uploaded it in the first post of this thread. I'm just confirming that it does indeed work. Cheers! ;)

OK guys, I may be missing something or maybe Im just a total noob. but from what I read....

I buy the card - 7012
I flash my bios (Yes I know how to do that)
I Insert my card in the full size slot
I Turn on my computer, and download the drivers...
and it works? That easy?

Also, the 7015 card does not work right?
