    I did an install on my computer and I am havingt the same issues as EneerGe... My blue touch buttons at the top do not work and my turbo extreme does not launch and my direct console does not work... Someone here mentioned to user GV71 drivers and they will work.. I have yet to test that out... Can anyone confirm that they do work?

    Yes they work. I have g71 but I used the G51 ATK files and they work perfectly. Just make sure you install atkdrv file first. Then install the others.

    As i explained in another post the ATKdrv enables the touch buttons. http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?p=5444673#post5444673
    also in addition download and install direct console and splendid video to get those respective fuctions back.

    i did that and my direct console works, in fact all my touch buttons except from the one with the ROG logo work.

    direct console software works like a charm its just the button, not that i need it lol i was just making a statement :p
