    Hi guys, I've been through the M17x driver thread and I'm still not real clear. I think I've installed all the drivers related to my M17x. Whenever I use my FN+Fx key to switch the battery on/off, light or dim the keyboard, etc. I don't have an icon like I used to. What am I forgetting to install?

    Thanks,
    Sarge

    Nevermind, I figured it out. Apparently the drivers aren't installed for me. I actually had to click a few things. Atleast when I start the morning off this stupid, it can only get better!
