    Hi - I'm working on getting Vista x64 installed on my new m1530, but I can't seem to find the drivers for the network controller. I've installed all of the drivers in the m1530 x64 thread, but I am still showing that it is not working in Device Manager.

    Little help?

    thanks!

    As in the broadband? Try uninstalling and reinstalling. Also check to make sure your x64 network controller is the same brand.

    yeah - figured it out. I have the crappy Dell one, not the one that everyone seems to link drivers for. The 32-bit drivers work fine apparently. All seems to be working!
