    drivers. is there any way to add the newer control panel to get the desktop color controls? the 98 driver lacks color controls and that is just ridiculous imo. anything newer from 15x caused blue fuzz or lines during startup and 16x and newer lags like crazy when going through anything to do with uac or during start up or shutdown it takes forever like sits on a black screen for 15-20 seconds before saying shutting down.

    the model is a dv9205us. so im wondering can i use the .98 drivers and add the color controls somehow
