    Hi, I upgrade to Win7 x64 my G60Vx and a special button, the one near the Power4Gear one is not working.

    Very clever! I didnot think about that.

    I want to know which is the driver I need to make it work. I already installed everything and it's not working.

    Is that not for laptops that have the little screen outside?

    Mine is G60Vx. I thought this button was for overclock. The Power4Gear overclock.

    I will install and see what happens. But on the G60Vx drivers page, there is no Direct COnsole.

    I installed the only version available on ASUS Website and my computer freeze from time to time until it freezes for good, then I have to make a hard reset.

    Maybe direct console does not work on Win7 x64?
