    I have installed the 7057 built of Windows 7 and i have some issues with the drivers, wondering if you guys have the same problems. I installed the battery manager and trackpoint software and they work perfect. however when i try to install the fingerprint and access connections i get a big NO. the finger print software can be installed but it says that the finger print sensor is not installed (doesn't have the right drivers). and in access connections i can't find the bluetooth button to disconnect the bluetooth (in case i want to save battery).

    i would much appreciate for some info. thank you guys.

    It's to be expected because W7 is a beta.

    I wouldn't look for full W7 compatibility until lenovo is actually shipping with W7 installed, and probably not even then for Access Connections. It was a loooonnggg time before they released a version that was not totally bugged out with Vista, even though they were shipping it.
