It's a work provided laptop. I am essentially a power user but I
don't have all admin rights under the security policy. I can install
additional software under my own account (not globally) provided I
take responsibility for it. I have installed a couple of critical (to
me) tools, but in general I don't mess with the machine much. Service
and driver installs can sometimes be problematic, but I didn't have
any obvious trouble with the new card drivers - AFAICT it went
smoothly (I did it twice actually, uninstalled and installed again
when IE didn't work).

WRT trying IE7 (which someone else suggested) ... we have some
specialized document handling software that's tied to IE6 and Office
2K. IT won't yet guarantee it to work with newer versions. We just
got XP on our laptops late last year so I'm not holding my breath for
updates.
