    I just recently installed windows 7 RC on my G51VX-RX05 and everything is working better than ever. Except there is one problem. my function keys for the volume dont work at all. all other function seem to be working just fine but the sound ones dont actually adjust the sound for some reason. ive searched the forums and google and cant seem to find any fixes for this. does anyone have any ideas?
    I appreciate all the help anyone gives. thank you.

    Win7 is working fine here, I used the drivers DVD ( The blue one ) to install the necessary apps for the computer run OKs... Everything is working...

    Just make sure you have all the recommended and important things from the Driver DVD installed on your computer, and you should be fine...

    when i put in the drivers and utilities disk it says. "suitable OS for this driver disk: 64bit vista business vista ultimate vista basic vista home prem vista enterprise." i have 64bit 7 so i guess it doesnt want to run.

    You can right click the "setup.exe" file inside the DVD, go to Properties -> Compatibility Tab, and choose Vista SP2 =) This will make things easier.. xD
