    I have been trying to find info on Asus Utils and drivers for Vista and it seems there is not a lot to be found....

    Am I missing something? There were beta drivers for my desktop unit months ago (Nvidia in particular).

    Thanks,
    Bob

    Have you installed Vista on the A8Js? I will have a final version of Vista Avaliable to me on Monday, and was wondering if the A8JS can fully support it yet, i think the W3J still has problems with installing Vista.

    Works fine for me. You will have to get the modified vid drivers from http://www.laptopvideo2go.com. NOTE read the instructions on how to use them as it is kind of funky, download thd drivers then download the necessray INF from the forum.

    Do a Windows update to get some additional drivers, then there will be one unknown device left. Pop you Driver CD in and update the device driver by having it search the CD. Done.

    I can't seem to get speedstep to work either....

    Hope that helps,
    Bb
