    Has anyone figured out how to access the driver download page on MSI's website? All it does is ask me to register my GT60 2PC Dominator-424 ( which I already have). I log in and still can't access the download page as it you guessed it, asks me to register. I've created an account and everything. I've searched the MSI forums but haven't been able to find an answer.

    Is there a trick to get to the download page? I want to download Win7 x64 drivers as I don't like Win8.

    Is there an alternate driver download web site for drivers?

    I had this same issue .. its a simple fix.. region needs to be in Global/English for the download page to show up.. if its USA(which it automatically routes to) download page wont show up.

    Bad coding by MSI.

    This was done intentionally since each regional office handles their own website, therefore the files are only available from the headquarter page.

    Many people including us had told them many times, it's for everyone's convenience including themselves but right now it's an issue they are having that cannot be resolved.
    It's got to do with the capability of their webmaster team.
