    OK I figured I'd better stop hijacking that other persons thread and start my own. This is where I'm at with this.

    W7 went in reasonably well. I have found that the Vista Video, Sound, Modem and touch pad drivers worked. I can't seem to get the MISC driver to work which is what everything else Vista is asking for.

    XP2 drivers worked to get the hotkeys working with the exception of the sound issue that everyone seems to have. WLAN switch works but I can't shut off or disable A - which I could on XP and would like to be able to do. One device was still showing as unknown. I just deleted it so we'll see if it comes back on a reboot.

    Loaded the PC viewer, DMI viewer and battery calibration from XP drivers. DMI seems to be missing some pieces of info but oh well.

    Any ideas on the WLAN switch?
