Never thought HP was going to release a new one, but they will!
The download link is not active yet as of this posting.

- Updated HP SimplePass Software by DigitalPersona to version 5.2.0.233 for Windows x64.

For those of you needing the 2-finger or 3-finger gestures, use the following Synaptics driver. If you do not need this feature, just use the current release that I have on the first post.
Version: 15.3.12.1

It's finally up!

- Activated the download link for HP SimplePass Software by DigitalPersona, version 5.2.0.233 for Windows x64 (64-bit).
01/15/2012
- Updated IDT High Definition Audio driver to version 6.10.6368.0.
- Updated Broadcom 2070 / 20702 Bluetooth driver package to version 6.5.0.2900.
- Updated Intel WiFi Link driver (and software) to version 14.3.0.6 (thanks Toink).
As a reminder, the Broadcom Bluetooth driver package version is 6.5.0.2900; individual driver components may have a different version number.
Also, there are two versions of the Intel WiFi Link package - one that includes only the driver, and the other which includes both the driver and My WiFi Technology software. Both versions are linked on the first post.
To my knowledge, no. You may want to contact Egistec to see if there is an update available. -
Hi Justin...(long time I didn't login here...missed this thread a lot...)
The link for the latest Bluetooth driver doesn't work:
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55501-56000/sp55670.exe
Can you confirm?
Thanks a lot,

Welcome back Axel! Great to see you posting again.
Just realized this too - the download link isn't working yet but it will be once HP uploads the package (I'm a little further ahead than they are). For the time being and in order to reduce confusion, I have deactivated the link and will reactivate it once the Softpaq goes live.

- Updated Synaptics TouchPad driver to version 15.3.33.0.
Yes, multifinger scrolling and gestures are now working again!!!

Thanks Justin, the link is now working.
I uninstalled the Egistec version of Simplepass software and installed DigitalPersona, but I had problems with Lastpass (my password manager that supports fingerprint auth), when it asks for the finger scan the DigitalPersona software intercepts the action and won't pass it to Lastpass so I've uninstalled it.
Now I'm running without any of the two but my fingerprints keep working...probably Windows is managing them...less stuff running on the PC.
Now I'm updating Synaptics...
Thanks again and keep up the great job.

- Updated Realtek PCIe Gigabit Ethernet Family Controller driver to version 7.050 for Windows 7.
You're welcome! Looking back, I've been maintaining this thread for the last 2.5 years now and it's still going strong! I know there are still a bunch of users here (including myself!) that still own these notebooks. Driver updates are just one of those (sometimes overlooked) ways that can at times add value to a notebook.
HP fails to realize this, and this is part of the reason why I do this. Plus, I love finding driver updates in my spare time - so why not expand the discussion and discovery to others?
-
Thank god the world is full of people who have strange "passions" like this...and internet is great because it's the only way of knowing them; how could you find a guy which has the same "driver update" passion in real life?

- Updated Intel Chipset Device Software to version 9.3.0.1019.
- Removed Intel HD Graphics driver version 8.15.10.2559 (15.22.52[.64].2559) / 6.14.0.3086 (Audio).
- Updated the post template.
The first post has an updated look - check it out!
Also, the driver components within the Intel Chipset Device Software will have a version that is less than or equal to 9.3.0.1019, depending on when the particular driver was last updated by Intel. -

- Updated IDT High Definition Audio driver to version 6.10.6370.0.
I've been experiencing popping sound problems with 6.10.6370.0; try it if you feel adventurous.
Unfortunately, I do not know why Intel had taken down version 8.15.10.2559. -
