    Okay, so we all know that Asus "Live Update" doesn't really update anything. I've also noticed that when I go to the driver page for the x83vm-x1 all the Utilities and ATK Drivers are also out of date (despite Asus updating the same drivers/utilities for other notebooks). So I've decided to compile a list of the latest utilities and ATK drivers that should be universal across different notebook models.

    - I know some of these are useless, but my goal was to compile the most complete list in case anybody ever needs them.
    - I wasn't able to find everything, so if you guys can fill in any of the blanks (or find something newer), please do.
    - Version numbers and dates listed are for Vistax64, but the links take you to a page where you an select your OS.
